Questions: Question 65 (0.375 points) You are shopping with a friend, on a tight budget. You find winter coats that you both love but you can't afford to buy them all, you have to choose only one. You both make a decision on one of the coats. You feel pretty good about your decision and think you'll love your coat. Your friend second-guesses her choice, thinking she should have bought another coat. For decision-making in this case, you are most likely a while your friend is a satisficer; satisfier satisficer; maximizer maximizer; minimizer maximizer; satisficer

The answer is B: satisficer; maximizer.

Explanation for each option:

1. Satisficer; satisfier: This option is incorrect because it uses the term "satisfier," which is not a recognized term in decision-making psychology. The correct term is "satisficer."

2. Satisficer; maximizer: This is the correct answer. A "satisficer" is someone who makes a decision once their criteria are met and is generally content with their choice. In this scenario, you are described as feeling good about your decision and thinking you'll love your coat, which aligns with the behavior of a satisficer. On the other hand, a "maximizer" is someone who seeks the best possible outcome and often second-guesses their decisions, thinking they could have made a better choice. Your friend, who is second-guessing her choice, fits the description of a maximizer.

3. Maximizer; minimizer: This option is incorrect because "minimizer" is not a standard term in decision-making psychology. The correct counterpart to a maximizer in this context would be a satisficer.

4. Maximizer; satisficer: This option is incorrect because it reverses the roles. In the scenario, you are the one who is content with your decision (satisficer), and your friend is the one who is second-guessing her choice (maximizer).

In summary, the correct answer is B: satisficer; maximizer.
