Use 「判定」 for a result ruled on against a standard — win or loss, pass or fail, as in 「判定勝ち」 and 「合否判定」. For general judgement say 「判断」; for a court verdict, 「判決」; for sports officiating, 「ジャッジ」; for expert appraisal, 「鑑定」. Formal settings prefer 「裁定」 (official rulings), 「裁決」 (administrative) or 「決議」 (resolutions); 「決定」 is any final decision, 「評価」 weighs good or bad, and 「審査」 screens for pass/fail. Written terms like 「査定」 and 「品評」 cover valuation and critique.
