FEEDBACK: To measure sensation seeking Zuckerman constructed the Sensation Seeking Scale (SSS), a 40-item paper-and-pencil questionnaire.

These included people who volunteered for psychological experiments that exposed them to novel experiences and people whose jobs involved physical danger (police officers and race-car drivers).
