The distinction between satisficing and maximizing not only differs in the decision-making process, but also in the post-decision evaluation. Maximizers tend to use a more exhaustive approach to their decision-making process: they seek and evaluate more options than satisficers do to achieve greater satisfaction.

Sixty-five percent of subjects found the ...
The satisfiability problem becomes more difficult if both "for all" and "there exists" quantifiers are allowed to bind the Boolean variables. An example of such an expression would be ∀ x ∀ y ∃ z ( x ∨ y ∨ z ) ∧ (¬ x ∨ ¬ y ∨ ¬ z ) ; it is valid, since for all values of x and y , an appropriate value of z can be found, viz. z ...
The more they like or dislike the show the more likely they are to rate the commercials shown during the show more positively or negatively (respectively). [7] Another example shows during sound recognition a context effect can use other sounds in the environment to change the way we categorize a sound. [8] [page needed]
