Instant Gratification
"Although this study is being conducted on Delaying Gratification, several important insights can be made about your emotional state based on your pattern of responses. In general, you are about as satisfied with life as most people. Overall, you seem to be a fairly relaxed person who is not easily bothered by daily stressors. Lately you do not worry very often, and you rarely feel sad or depressed. Either you have very low levels of anger or you hide it well. In terms of physical health, you tend to be about as healthy as most people. Lately, you feel well and do not report any physical complaints.For people who are not as satisfied with life as they would like to be, the following feedback on delaying gratification may suggest useful paths for changing behavior. Foremost, your responses indicate that you are sometimes able to withstand discomfort for the sake of long-term gains, but in some areas you are more concerned with immediate pleasure. In terms of eating habits, you may have some healthy habits but also tend to occasionally indulge cravings or eat unhealthy foods. In general, physical comfort is important to you, but sometimes you are willing to experience distress if there are positive long-term consequences. In social situations, you sometimes focus more on meeting your own needs than pleasing others, but seeing other people happy also makes you happy. Financially, you may try to save money when possible but also splurge from time to time. In school and work, you may have tried to work hard but sometimes procrastinated.
