Who is likely to be choosy?
Psychology researchers have studied how people make decisions and concluded there are two basic styles. "Maximizers" like to take their time and weigh a wide range of option before choosing. "Satisficers" would rather be fast than thorough; they prefer to quickly choose the option that fills the minimum criteria.
"Maximizers are people who want the very best. Satisficers are people who want good enough," says Dr. Schwartz. She has developed a 13-level test to assess a person’s decisionmaking orientation. Each statement is scored on a scale of 1 to 7. The higher your score, the more of a maximizer you are. Most people fall somewhere in the middle. A person can maximize when it comes to some decisions and satisfice on others.
In a study of job-seeking college seniors, they found that the maximizers landed better jobs. Their starting salaries were, on average, 20% higher than those of the satisficers, but they felt worse about their jobs. "The maximizer is kicking himself because he can’t examine every option and at some point had to just pick something," Dr. Schwartz says. "Maximizers make good decisions and end up feeling bad about them. Satisficers make good decisions and end up feeling good. "
选项
A、A maximizer.
B、A satisficer.
C、A hesitator.
D、A psychologist.
答案
A
解析
本文讨论了两种性格倾向的人;完美主义者和知足常乐者。完美主义者在做选择前常常挑来挑去,所以推断他们可能会比较挑剔。参见原文:“‘Maximizers’like to take their time and weigh a wide range of option before choosing.”。 satisficers由satisfy和suffice各取一半,结尾加er,混合而成,意思相当于知足常乐者。
