Dissertation help

I am in the early stages of planning my dissertation. So far, I have devised this:

The aim of this study is to examine the relationship between the intensity of attachment and grief responses among adults following the death of their pet. It is hypothesized that:

1. Participants with higher levels of attachment to their pets will report higher levels of grief following the death of their pet.

First of all, as it currently stands, is it ok to just have 1 hypothesis? Secondly, I'll be using two measures (attachment questionnaire and grief severity questionnaire). What type of data analysis will I need to perform?

Furthermore, I would like to include disenfranchised grief (No social recognition or validation that the person has the right to grieve or claim for social support) and use a questionnaire to measure that also but not sure how to include this?

Any guidance would be appreciated.
