Mike lost his job when the company for which he worked closed its Midwest office. Unemployment was running out and he felt pressured to choose between his two best options: take a job with a company that offered a great salary but had a cut-throat corporate culture, or go with a startup that would challenge, but which offered a less-than average salary and little job security.

A. is controlled by unconscious needs and conflicts.
B. reflects a self-concept based on a materialistic society's values.
C. is based on organismic valuation.
