Marvin Zuckerman’s work on dimensions of sensation seeking reveals four dimensions to this trait: (1) thrill and adventure seeking (e.g., engaging in risky sports and activities); (2) experience seeking (e.g., travelling to exotic locations, experimenting with drugs, listening to exciting music); (3) disinhibition (e.g., going to wild parties, engaging in sexual activity with strangers); and (4) susceptibility to boredom (e.g., being easily bored by predictable experiences and people). These dimensions are theoretically independent. A researcher was interested in designing a new questionnaire to measure sensation seeking. A 16-item questionnaire using a 5-point Likert scale (1 = strongly disagree, 2 = disagree, 3 = neither, 4 = agree, 5 = strongly agree) was devised and given to 750

people.
