　　Psychologists have found that one of the best ways to make an important decision，choosing a university to attend，for example，involves the use of a decision worksheet.Psychologists who study optimization(最优化) compare the actual decisions made by people to theoretical ideal decisions to see how similar they are.Supporters of the worksheet procedure believe that it will bring about the best decisions.Although there are several variations on the exact format that worksheets can take，they are all similar in their essential aspects.Worksheets require defining the problem in a clear way and then listing all possible solutions to the problem.Next，the considerations that will be affected by each decision are listed，and the relative importance of each consideration or consequence is determined.Each consideration is assigned a numerical(数字的) value to reflect its related importance.A decision is then mathematically calculated by adding these values together.The choice with the highest number of points comes as the best decision.

　　Since most important problems are multifaceted(多方面的)，there are several alternatives to choose from，each with unique advantages and disadvantages.One of the benefits of a pencil and paper decision­making procedure is that it permits people to deal with more variables(可变因素) than their minds can generally comprehend and remember.On average，people can keep about seven ideas in their minds at once.A worksheet can be especially useful when the decision involves a large number of variables with complex relationships.A realistic example for many college students is the question “What will I do after graduation？”A graduate might seek a position that offers specialized training，pursue an advanced degree，or travel abroad for a year.
