Judgment and decision making definition

Judgment is considered to be the ability to determine relationships and also be able to draw conclusions from events with strong evidence. Throughout life, humans need to be able to make a decision with sound judgment to provide for their family and or make the best decision possible that will most benefit them in the long run.

These two things tie in together; often, bad judgment can lead to bad decisions. Being able to make these good judgments and decisions also will depend highly on attention influences one will encounter.Mrkva, K., Ramos, J., & Van Boven, L. (2020).
