Dropdown box: How to know if a value is selected or not

in the code below, I need to know what choice is being selected. What is the appropriate way? Thank you

$(window).ready(function() { 
    $("#Tmimata > option").each(function(index) {
         var mythis = $(this);
         if (mythis.selected) { 

         }
         else {

         }
    });
 });

you'd use the :selected selector

if (mythis.is(':selected')) { 

}

To check if the element is selected, you should use .prop():

if (mythis.prop('selected')) {
    // do something
}
