Codes :

  • A.(i) (ii) (iii) (iv)
  • B.(i) (ii) (iii)
  • C.(i) (ii) (iv)
  • D.(i) (iii) (iv)

Answer: C

The behavioural approach is criticised on the grounds (i), (ii) and (iv): it has an inadequate conceptual framework to explain organisational phenomena, it takes an autonomous view of the administrative system, ignoring its environment, and it adopts an idealistic view of human behaviour.

Statement (iii) is not a criticism, since the claim that it offers definite suggestions for improving decision making is not a weakness, and critics said that the approach gave too few practical prescriptions. So the third option is correct.
