Question

Gloria, the controller of Luna Pizza, is purchasing several new delivery vehicles. Gloria has numerous work responsibilities, so she has limited time to shop for cars. Because of the time constraints, she cannot make an extensive search for the best alternative, so she looks for cars until she finds a model that is satisfactory. Gloria is following the ________ model.

a. limited focus.b. limited scope.c. dilemma.d. rationale.e. satisficing

Answer 1

Correct option is (e)

Step-by-step explanation:

Satisficing model is a decision making model that aims at selecting a satisfactory outcome or product by going through available options rather than aiming for the best or optimal outcome. To obtain optimal outcome, one needs to put in efforts in terms of time and energy.

In this case, Gloria follows satisficing model as she cannot make extensive research due to time constraints. so she aims at buying a car that seems satisfactory to her.
