What is the relationship between goal-seeking and simulation in the planning process?
What is the relationship between goal-seeking and simulation in the planning process?
- Simulation is a sub-division of goal-seeking
- They interact with each other and are inseparable from survey information (correct)
- Simulation is the final evaluation of fully worked-out alternatives
- They occur at different points in the planning process
How does the 'short list' of alternatives discussed in the chapter evolve?
How does the 'short list' of alternatives discussed in the chapter evolve?
- By immediate rejection of unsuitable alternatives
- Through formal evaluations at specific intervals
- Through a long process of trial-and-error simulations (correct)
- By unconscious selection based on intangibles
What is the nature of the evaluation of alternatives in the planning process?
What is the nature of the evaluation of alternatives in the planning process?
- Evaluation is solely based on formal criteria and surveys
- Partial evaluations, small quantitative tests, and judgements on intangibles lead to rejection, modification, or combination of alternatives (correct)
- Evaluation happens after the final selection of alternatives
- Evaluation occurs only at specific intervals in the planning process
