  This article suffers from the same shortcomings like many others on the subject (including the books quoted by the author) i.e. trying to reduce the Decision-Making process into a prescriptive bullet point list. This methodology doesn't work.

  IMO, the "correct" way to study it is through Gary Klein's Recognition Primed Decision Model (RPDM) (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Recognition_primed_decision) and the Naturalistic Decision Making (NDM) Framework (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Naturalistic_decision-making).

  For a comprehensive overview of various approaches/models see Thinking and Deciding by Jonathan Baron and The Psychology of Judgment and Decision Making by Scott Plous.
