question 34

Multiple Choice

$\text{MP3 MINI CASE:}$ Judy wants a new MP3 player so she can listen to music while she runs. She currently runs with a CD player, but is irritated with the frequency with which it skips and the limited amount of music that can be stored on a CD. After reviewing several consumer reviews on various tech websites, she identifies 5 different MP3 player models that might meet her needs. She decides that she needs at least 20 gigabytes of data storage on her player, and eliminates all options with fewer than 20 GB. There are now 3 models remaining. She then decides that she will only accept players with at least 15 hours of battery life. She is now considering only 2 players. Player A is heavier, but has a longer battery life. Player B is lighter, but has a shorter battery life. Judy chooses Player A because she believes that the longer battery life more than compensates for the additional weight.
-In the MP3 MINI CASE, Judy's need recognition style makes her a(n) ________ type.

• B) affective state
• C) actual state
• D) aspired state
