Question

Evan has just been hired as a product manager for a major technology firm. Currently, he is making purchases for his new apartment and upcoming job. His purchase of _____ would most likely be done through extended decision making, while his purchase of ____ would be made through limited decision-making behavior.

Answer 1

Answer:

His purchase of a new apartment would most likely be done through extended decision making, while his purchase of upcoming job things would be made through limited decision-making behavior.

Explanation: Extended decision making involves purchases of very important things, in which you have to analyze carefully the options and usually be ready to make a considerable investment in the object you're looking into. Limited decision making is not as complex and as important as the extended decision, so it's not needed to analyze multiple options in order to decide what the purchase is going to be. Having this in mind, it's easier to see that the apartment relates to extended decision making, since  buying a new place is something very important to someone, while purchasing some things for an upcoming job might not be that complicated to decide.
