Sumario:Changes in the predominant mode of decision according to the age: its relation with the effectiveness of decisions made by volunteers in peacekeeping missions. It is known that to achieve effective action in contexts characterized by cultural diversity and uncertainty, decision-making strategies are needed that involve processing or analytical intuitive mode, depending on circumstances (Azzollini, Torres, Depaula, Clotet & Nistal, 2010). The objective of this study was to determine experimentally whether there are differences in the ways of processing information and efficiency in decision making, depending on the age of the subjects. It´s been evaluated the mode of processing and determining the effectiveness of decisions made by 116 volunteer soldiers of different ages, in different situations in which they experimentally manipulated the level of cultural uncertainty. The results indicate that older subjects show a clear trend towards the use of predominantly intuitive processes in decision-making (F=3,473, p=0.034), with a marginally significant loss of eficacy (F=3,045, p=0.052).
