YOUR SUMMARY REPORT ...

Surveys are not crystal balls, and they cannot provide an X-ray of your soul. This feedback is designed to integrate the information you provided. In general, this feedback is more insightful for people who do not spend as much time engaged in self-reflection, so if these results are obvious to you, you may well have a good understanding of yourself.


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, your level of stress seems to be about as high as most people. Lately you have a fairly typical number of worries, and you rarely feel sad or depressed. Also, you only get angry about as often as most people. In terms of physical health, you tend to be about as healthy as most people. Lately, you feel about as well as usual.


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 prefer to pursue immediate pleasures but may have difficulty withstanding discomfort for the sake of long-term gains. In terms of eating habits, you may prefer to eat what you want when you want it, rather than worry about long-term health concerns. In general, physical comfort and pleasure are important to you. You may have difficulty enduring physical distress. In social situations, you may tend to focus more on your own needs, rather than worrying about other people’s concerns. Financially, you may try to save money when possible but also splurge from time to time. In school and work, you may have preferred to spend time on other activities or had difficulty completing boring tasks.


Remember, these results are only for your entertainment and should not serve as the basis for important life decisions. In person, a psychologist would be able to provide much more accurate and useful results. Thank you for participating.
