Sažetak
This paper targets the late stage of adolescence by examining decision-making styles among young adults-university students. The main objective of the paper is to evaluate the effectiveness of late adolescent decision-making style by analyzing decision-making styles of final - year students in terms of their academic achievement. Due to the wide application and confirmed validation of the General Decision - Making Style (GDMS) instrument, developed by Scott and Bruce (1995)., it is used as the focus of this survey. The sample is comprised of 77 final -year students on Croatian Faculty of Economics, Business and Tourism- University of Split. The results revealed that there is a statistically significant difference between decision-making styles among young adults- university students considering satisfaction with their overall academic achievement. Totally observed, results suggested that students with a greater tendency toward a rational decision making style are the ones that are the most satisfied with their academic achievement level, compared with an avoidant decision making style. Lastly, research results and limitations of study with reference to future research directions are provided.
