Decision making with or without hyphen

  • Do you need a hyphen in decision-making?

    In Merriam-Webster, our dictionary of choice, the hyphenated compound noun “decision-making” appears as such, so it's always hyphenated..

Is decision making one word or two?

Once again, I have run into a law review that has adopted the convention of using decisionmaking as a one word unhyphenated noun and adjective.
I hate to be pedantic about this, but the Chicago Manual of Style still says that decision making is an unhyphenated two word compound noun and a hyphenated two word compound adjective:

  1. FWIW
  2. Word's and Safari's spell checkers agree with me and the Chicago Manual
