Abstract
The psychometric properties of the Decision-making Questionnaire which was designed to assess decision-making in an organizational context were investigated by administering the questionnaire to 54 undergraduate students. The dimensions measured are Effectiveness, Confidence, and Information used in making both tactical and strategic organizational decisions. The assessment of the Effectiveness scores consisted of examining item-to-total correlations, principal components analyses, and internal consistencies. Also, the relationships amongst all three dimensions measured by the scale as well as relationships of all three dimensions with measures of perceived opportunities and threats are reported.Keywords
