Hypothesis: People who believe they will die soon are less likely to delay gratification (i.e., less likely to forgo immediate rewards for larger future gains).

Can you use the experimental method or not?

If yes, why? If not, why not (is it not practical, ethical, or neither?)

What are your IV and DVs

IVs: Individuals belief that they will die sooner or later

DV: Delayed gratification time

Whether experimental or correlational, what are your operational definitions for those variables?

What statistical test do you conduct and why?
