The present study aimed to explore the role of self-regulation in prediction of decision making styles among managers of cellular companies. Short Form of Self-Regulation Questionnaire (Carey & Neal, 2005) and General Decision Making Style Questionnaire (Scott & Bruce, 1995) were used to assess self regulation and decision making styles, respectively. The sample constituted managers of cellular companies (N = 163) of Rawalpindi and Islamabad. Findings revealed that self-regulation positively predicted rational, intuitive, and spontaneous decision making styles and negatively predicted the dependent decision making style, whereas it has nonsignificant correlation with avoidant decision making style. No differences were found among three levels of management in relation to self-regulation and decision making styles. Results also showed that men preferred to opt rational decision making style as compared to women. Moreover, young managers use intuitive, dependent, and avoidant decision making styles while older managers follow rational decision making styles.
