Answer to Question 1

ANS: F
FEEDBACK: Significant gender differences were also found in the four individual components of sensation seeking. Men scored higher on thrill and adventure seeking, disinhibition, and boredom susceptibility, whereas women scored higher on experience seeking.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: T
FEEDBACK: Zuckerman stated, When I was a young sensation seeker I imagined that after I retired I would do all kinds of adventurous things like hang gliding, parachute jumping, and learning to fly an airplane. But whereas thrill and adventure seeking and disinhibition fall rapidly with age, experience seeking does not change.
