This research is consisted of two empirical studies. In study 1, it examined if consumers differ in their prediction of happiness of purchases depending of their product evaluation mode (i.e., joint evaluation mode vs. single evaluation mode). Study results suggest that under joint evaluation mode the predicted happiness increased as the level of product attributes increased but under single evaluation mode there is no difference of the predicted happiness regardless of the product attribute levels. This is found for both material and experiential products so that distinction bias is supported empirically. In study 2, the study investigated if there is differences in the proportion of the bucket list of material things and experiential things as well as the first bucket list item in line with the suggestion of socioemotional selectivity theory. Study results indicate that people prioritize experiential things compared to material things and list more experiential items in the bucket list when they perceive their time in life is limited.
