Change this:

$get = $("#UserTypeDropdown option[value = '$temp']").text();

To:

$get = $("#UserTypeDropdown option[value='"+$temp+"']").text();

You could also use the filter method:

$("#UserTypeDropdown option").filter(function() {
     return this.value === $temp;
}).text();

Maybe try this:

$get = $("#UserTypeDropdown option[value = '" + $temp + "']").text();
