The role of women has always been a multi-dimensional and significant as women have performed well in case of agricultural activities, domestic activities, marketing activities as far as labour requirement is considered. The decision-making process is an important segment of every household because the functioning of family resource management depends on the efficiency of decision-making progress. So, women involvement in decision-making process has been of great importance because sampling method to make a sample of 120 respondents. Hence finally the sampling consisted of 120 respondents. More number of farm women were found to have level of decision making process: the highest decision making behavior in sowing followed by winnowing process, seed processing, irrigation management , collection of harvested crop, storage, field preparation, selection of seed/variety, marketing, Manures and fertilizer application, weeding, harvesting, seed treatment, Pest and disease management and soil testing.

Women farmers are engaged in both production and processing of turmeric. Majority of the women have been involved in decision-making process. During COVID–19 pandemic situation women were more affected than men by means of economical aspects. During COVID-19 pandemic situation, farm women’s decision making process has been changed hence the study “Analysis of Changes in Decision Making Behaviour of Turmeric Farm Women during COVID-19 Pandemic Situation” has been taken up. The study was conducted in Kodumudi block of Erode district. Based on proportionate random sampling method, six villages were selected with the sample of 120 farm women. From the result it was observed that before COVID-19, majority of the farm women had not been involved in decision making process like crop production, fertilizer application, pest management, disease management, Nematode management, harvesting and post harvest activities while during COVID-19 farm women took decision either with the family members or with the help of their spouse in turmeric farming. To overcome this situation there must be more number of training programmes conducted to the farm women in turmeric farming techniques which inturn help them to take right decision by their own.

The bureaucratic politics model has achieved great popularity in the study of decision making. Yet too often the term “bureaucratic politics” is used by scholars and practitioners without clearly stating its policy application. The decision-making behavior that occurred during the Johnson and Nixon administrations for SALT I serves to illustrate many of the limits of the model. First, the decision-making structure posited by the bureaucratic politics model is not nearly as prevalent within the executive branch as is commonly assumed. Second, even where the bureaucratic politics structure is present, the decision-making process is not always one of bargaining, compromise, and consensus. Finally, the decision context and the decision participants are ignored in the model. To provide a clearer understanding of policy-making behavior, a more systematic decision-making framework is offered, which should contribute to the development of better model- and theory-building.

The classical theory of financial markets is based on the decision-making process based on hypotheses about "market efficiency", which implies rational decisionmaking that always brings the expected results that can be predicted and calculated. However, practice shows that there are situations of irrational decision-making in the markets, the results of which are far from predictable and expected. We need to study these situations through Behavioral Finance, which allows us to monitor the results of irrational decision-making behavior, which we call anomalies. Most irrational decisions are based on excessive self-confidence, so it is the subject of necessary continuous research in order to clarify this segment of irrational behavior in the behavior of actors in the financial market and thus use it to achieve optimal effects.

In the 21st century, the growth of environmentally friendly products caught attention primarily from both consumers and companies. One of the most interesting trends is consumers’ growing environmental conscience and social impacts of the products they buy. The preference for green products is clearly increasing. Consumers want to act green, but they expect businesses to lead the way. However, many companies experienced problems to understand the consumers’ decision-making process. Consumers are equally confused when they do not quite understand how to act on their greener impulses. Many attempts to label green products are meaningless at best and mystifying at worst. In other words, companies must move customers through the entire purchasing process—from being aware of eco-friendly products to consider their pros and cons, to paying for the products. Due to this issue, a significant advancement of neuroscience has resulted in the emergence of neuromarketing, which provides a better understanding of how subconscious minds react in everyday situations, especially in marketing activities. This new concept brings powerful insights and techniques into marketing research, especially on consumers’ behaviour analysis. In this view, this study looks at the growing field of neuromarketing and aims to explore consumers’ subconscious minds by examining the effectiveness of the marketing mix on consumers’ decision-making process. This study employed Event-related Potential (ERP) and Eye Tracking (ET) to examine consumers’ subconscious minds towards the main component of the marketing mix during the decision-making process. A laboratory experiment employed twenty-two volunteers to take part in the study. The results revealed that price and promotion elements are the key attributes which consumers consider in purchasing a green product. Thus, neuromarketing can reconfigure and improve conventional theories of marketing. This evidence offers a new marketing opportunity for marketers to improvise their marketing strategy and thus, increase their sales growth.

Watershed ecological compensation has been widely accepted as a system to promote the cooperation of various stakeholders to solve the problem of transboundary water pollution, but the existing research does not fully consider the impact of compensation fee paid by different governments on stakeholders’ decision-making. Therefore, this paper constructs a tripartite game model between upstream governments, downstream governments, and the central government by using evolutionary game theory and determines the influence of different factors on the decision-making process of each player through simulation. The results show the following: (1) the initial probability significantly affects the decision-making behavior of each player; (2) daily supervision of the central government and the reduction of the environmental protection cost can promote the implementation of watershed ecological compensation; (3) the fine to downstream governments makes the decisions of the central government and downstream governments change periodically; and (4) the increase of ecological compensation fee urges downstream governments to choose noncompensation, and compensation fee paid by the central government has a critical value.

The purpose of this article is to outline a decision-making process and highlight which portions of the augmentative and alternative communication (AAC) evaluation process deserve special attention when deciding which features are required for a communication system in order to provide optimal benefit for the user. The clinician then will be able to use a feature-match approach as part of the decision-making process to determine whether mobile technology or a dedicated device is the best choice for communication. The term mobile technology will be used to describe off-the-shelf, commercially available, tablet-style devices like an iPhone®, iPod Touch®, iPad®, and Android® or Windows® tablet.
