Answer to Question 1

March and Simon's administrative decision-making model is descriptive; it explains how people actually make decisions in organizations. March and Simon stress that incomplete information and the decision maker's cognitive abilities and psychological makeup affect decision making. Consequently, decision makers often choose satisfactory, not optimal solutions.

According to the model, decision makers choose how to respond to opportunities and problems on the basis of a simplified and approximate account of the situationthe decision maker's definition of it, in other words. Decision makers do not consider all information relevant to a problem or opportunity; neither do they consider all possible alternatives and their consequences.

Answer to Question 2

B

Every flu season is different, and even healthy people can get extremely sick from the flu, as well as spread it to others. The flu season can begin as early as October and last as late as May. Every person over six months of age should get an annual flu vaccine. The vaccine cannot cause you to get influenza, but in some seasons, may not be completely able to prevent you from acquiring influenza due to changes in causative viruses. The viruses in the flu shot are killed—there is no way they can give you the flu. Minor side effects include soreness, redness, or swelling where the shot was given. It is possible to develop a slight fever, and body aches, but these are simply signs that the body is responding to the vaccine and making itself ready to fight off the influenza virus should you come in contact with it.
