Question

David has heard people on TV talking about Birzeit University. They seemed like "his kind of people" and he thinks that Birzeit might be a good choice for him. Which sentence best describes David's decision making here?

Select one:

a. He is relying on emotion.

b. He is being irrational.

c. He is relying on intuition.

d. He is being purely بحتrational.

Answer 1

The answer is option (C)

David is relying on intuition for decision making in the above example.

He does not have any data or research behind the decision. He heard people on TV talking about Birzeit University and it felt as if the people were of his kind. He had an intuition that he felt connected to those people, hence the university they chose, will be good for him as well. So, he also thinks that Birzeit is a good choice without proper analysis of other universities and any research.
