Generation of scale items will tap into these three distinct attributes of hyperopia. However, note that previous research has examined hyperopia primarily in terms of behaviors and long-term consequences of those behavioral patterns. Thus, the exact nature of hyperopia and its precise relationship to self-control warrant further exploration. We next identify three questions that are critical in advancing the study of hyperopia and validating our measure: (1) Does hyperopia operate simply by altering approach tendencies toward luxuries or by biasing perceptions of a given object as luxurious or indulgent? (2) Is hyperopia correctly identified as a preference for necessities, an aversion to luxuries, or both? (3) How are high self-control and hyperopia related?
