Comparative Study on Sensation-Seeking Among Adult Males and Females During Traveling

Abstract

The study looks at how traveling adult males and females behave when seeking sensations. The inclination to pursue various intricate, unusual, and intense experiences is known as sensation-seeking, and psychology has identified it as a general personality feature. There are fifty male and fifty female travelers included in the sample. The study employed Zuckerman’s sensation-seeking scale, a structured questionnaire. The data were evaluated using an independent sample T-test after the data were gathered using the random sampling method. The outcome suggests a noteworthy correlation between the samples of males and females. The attitude or conduct of sensation-seeking toward adult travelers is a crucial part of the study. The research concludes that because of several outside pressures and other factors, the male samples exhibit higher levels of sensation-seeking behavior than the female samples. Sensation-seeking behavior is often viewed negatively, despite the fact that it frequently enables people to advance or make decisions. For those who are unaware of sensation-seeking, the study contributes to gaining a comprehensive understanding of this behavior. It also seeks to steer clear of the incorrect perspective on sensation-seeking in public life.
