Accommodation involves

  1. Constructing new ideas

  2. Comparing oneself to others

  3. Adjusting one's existing schemas

  4. Learning from past experience

The correct answer is: Adjusting one's existing schemas

Accommodation is a process of adjusting or changing our existing schema to account for new information that we encounter. It involves modifying our understanding or beliefs based on new experiences or information. Option A, constructing new ideas, may seem similar but it refers to the process of assimilation - absorbing new information into our existing schema. Comparing oneself to others, option B, is not a part of accommodation and is not directly related to changing our existing schemas. Similarly, learning from past experiences, option D, is a general concept and not specific to the process of accommodation. Option C is the best answer as it specifically describes the process of adjusting existing schemas.
