Answer: The correct answer is "Benefit segmentation".

Explanation: The benefit segmentation would identify the fact that Ashley, Colleen and Michelle are in different segments because in this case the differente choices are fundamented on individual's preferences.

In this case, demographic segmentation and SES segmentation would not work because the different choices are based on each individual's preferences.

And the segmentation of the use situation and the use rate would not work either because the benefits do not vary according to the occasion and is not based on the amount in which they use a product or service.
