Answer to Question 1

ANS: A
FEEDBACK: To measure sensation seeking Zuckerman constructed the Sensation Seeking Scale (SSS), a 40-item paper-and-pencil questionnaire. When developing this test, he administered it to many people whose behavior corresponded to his definition of sensation seeking.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: D
FEEDBACK: Zuckerman describes sensation seeking as a desire for varied, novel, complex, and intense sensations and experience, and the willingness to take physical, social, legal, and financial risks for the sake of such experience. We might call it simply taking chances.
