Which of the following aspects describe how mindfulness practice supports the diagnostic thinking?

• Limit the use of intuition in decision making.

• It allows you to carefully examine a situation, encouraging curiosity and the balance between logic and emotion.

• Minimizes the collection of objective and subjective data.

• Avoid making the diagnosis based on observations of sensations or emotions.

What are the characteristics of the situation assessment in CPS?

• Comprehensive Data Collection

• Flexible Process

• Continuous Monitoring

What is one of the main functions of diagnostic thinking?

• Implement solutions without prior analysis.

• Describe and identify relevant data.

• Ignore intuitive information.

• Avoid decision-making.

What tools are des in divergent thinking to explore a situation from multiple angles?

• Hits technique and highlighting.

• If-Then process analysis

• The 5 Ws and 1 H and the Why diagram.

• The 4 I's (influence, imagination, interest and immediacy)

What is the primary purpose of divergent thinking tools when assessing a situation?

• To get immediate and concrete answers.

• To generate and gather broad data from multiple perspectives.

• To reduce the amount of information for easier decision-making.

• To directly solve the identified problem.

How is the “5 Ws and an H” technique used to gather data?

• By answering only the most relevant questions and skipping the rest.

• By applying one question at a time until information is exhausted.

• By using “why” questions to dig deeper into the problem’s causes.

• By adding the word “else” (who else, what else) to expand data collection in each category.

What is the primary purpose of the "Hits" tool in convergent thinking?

• To generate as many ideas as possible.

• To analyze the root cause of a problem.

• To discard unnecessary data based on strict criteria.

• To select the most intriguing or relevant pieces of data.

What is the final step in the "Highlighting" tool process?

• Label each cluster

• Select Hits

• roup similar Hits into clusters

• Eliminate unnecessary data

What does the "I" stand for in the 4I’s model in decision-making?

• Intelligence 

• Imagination

• Information

• Interaction

What is one of the primary functions of mindfulness in decision-making?

• To avoid technical errors  

• To simplify complex tasks  

• To generate more data for decision-making  

• To help recognize and use emotions in the process
