The conjunctive decision strategy involves setting a minimum acceptable cutoff level for each attribute and choosing the first option that meets all the minimum criteria. Since Sally's favorite dress met all her criteria but she decided to look further, using the conjunctive strategy would have led her to choose that dress immediately, avoiding the risk of it being gone when she returned.
