This fill-in-the-blank came from my textbook: A decision can be made in a Java program with a(n) _______. I have no idea, and have searched the textbook chapter that the homework came from. Feel free to e-mail me if you have a wild guess that you'd rather not post here due to worrying that it's wrong -- I will greatly appreciate even wild guesses.

is selection statement the answer your looking for?
I know java does have a if statement, and since it is very syntactically like C++, most likely case statements as well.

All decisions in a Java program could be made with a conditional statement (if.. else..).
Even switch.. case.. could be written as complex if..else if.. else conditional statement.
To further justify the answer... when you try to represent the Java program using a flowchart, you always use a decision box to represent if..else kind of statements.

boolean --- cos boolean allows for a true/false decision. Others such as if/else do/while are possible but boolean seems like the most "correct" as its a definable variable and not a constructor like the others.
