Big Picture QuestionAre individuals in one
culture more likely than another to be impatient?
Specific Question
Are individuals in one culture more likely to press the “close” button when they get on the elevator?

Hypothesis
We hypothesize that Koreans are living faster paced lives than Americans. We base this hypothesis on the idea that pressing the close button in an elevator is one of the many indications of impatience.

Objective
Our main objective is to find out whether one society is more impatient compared to the other.

Method
1.Place a camera in the corner of an elevator(where it cannot be seen easily) from 8:00-9:00a.m. and 7:00-8:00p.m. Count the number of people that press the button when they get on the elevator.
2. Conduct a survey.

Potential Errors• Elevator Experiment
• privacy issues
• not all people get the
opportunity to press the
button when they get on
the elevator
ex) if three people get on
an elevator, only one
person presses the button
• different places where
the research is conducted
(apartment vs. hotel)
• Survey
• only based on highschool
students
• different number of
people in Korea and USA
took the survey
• circled more than one
answer
