Question 2

Adolescents frequently use heuristics to solve problems. Which of the following illustrates problem solving with heuristic thinking?

  b. For my trip to New York, I need to take enough clothes for four days in one carryon bag. I'll list the shirts and slacks and figure out the combinations that will work best.
  c. I need to write a thank you letter to Mr. Gibson for offering me a summer job. I'll include one paragraph about my interest in the job and another thanking him for his time.
  d. This fish has been in the refrigerator for three days. I wonder whether or not it is good to eat. My rule of thumb is, If in doubt, throw it out. I won't eat it.
