Aim: Decision making is one of the most important aspects of our individual and social lives. In spite of various models and frameworks of decision making, no comprehensive model has been proposed so far to integrate cognitive dimensions in decision making models. In the current era, with the development and advancement of cognitive sciences, it’s necessary to deepen our studies in this field. Thus, our aim was to identify the current status of the studies conducted about components of decision making. Method: All themes of decision making were identified through systematic review literature using meta analysis. The data coding was done with Nvivo-11. Finally, 80 codes of decision making were categorized in 26 categories and 5 themes (contextual factors, individual factors, cognitive readiness and cognitive distortions). Then the importance and priority of each proposed dimension was determined using Shannon quantitative method based on content analysis. Results & Conclusion: Thus, this study is innovative in terms of both results and methodology. The other innovation of this study is the comprehensive integration of cognitive components into decision making models.
