Intuição e racionalidade: um estudo sobre a tomada de decisão estratégica em empresas de pequeno porte

The literature about the process of decision making reflects the predominance of approaches based on unlimited rationality and bounded rationality, ie, rationality in one side and intuition in another. However, more recently a new perspective has emerged, according to which it is necessary integration between deliberate thinking, conscious, and instinctive, pointing to the existence of a continuum and not a dichotomy between the approaches. This paper aims to investigate which approach, rational or intuitive, the small business uses to make strategic decisions. For this we conducted a survey with 45 small business associated with Commercial and Business Association of Sergipe - ACESE. The results suggest the use of an integrated approach to decision making on the part of the companies surveyed and a slight tendency rational along the continuum between the approaches.

The cognitive approach may be useful in understanding the factors that underlie the choice to allow the understanding of the intentions of users. In this context, this paper aims to identify the mental constructs used by experienced users of social networks sites for its adoption, in the city of Aracaju.

A total of 32 users who use or have used at least three social networks sites were interviewed, in order to investigate respondents who already possess significant experience with such services in Aracaju. Among the findings it was reported that the cognition of respondents preserves optimism, but low innovative character, emphasizing speed and dynamism of communication with other people who know personally.

A qualidade das alternativas em decisões estratégicas: um estudo sobre criatividade e completude em decisões empresariais

The quality of strategic decisions of executives is directly related to the ability they have to find creative alternatives when facing business problems. These alternatives could be generated intuitively, using heuristics. On the other hand, the researches on alternatives generation have consistently indicated that people are not efficient on this duty. The argument for that, contained in the decisions literature, is not conclusive and it allows speculation about it. To explore this issue and relate it to the Brazilian Administration, an experiment was designed for 174 students of four courses of MBA. The experiment and the analysis were resulted from the confluence between the experimental research from decision cognitive psychology with sciences vision of the traditional organizational decision and the new field of study on naturalistic or intuitive decisions. To measure the creativity of the alternatives presented during the experiment, the concept of hierarchical tree was utilized and it has proved a powerful tool to the typology of alternatives. The result of this experiment confirmed the poor performance in alternatives generation by managers and at the same time, indicated that probably, the generation of options isolated of analysis can produce better quality of alternatives. The heuristic, do not demonstrated any influence on options generated.
