这项研究评估了感觉寻求和冲动之间的关系，在犯罪、经济、社会违法、体育和性行为中的艾滋病风险等几个领域的风险评估，以及在相同领域的危险行为。研究对象是447名大学生，他们接受了人格测试，并根据因素分析编制了风险评估和危险行为量表。多元回归分析显示，感知到的同伴行为和感觉寻求成为危险行为的有力预测因素，特别是在犯罪行为和社会违规领域。除艾滋病风险与男性危险性行为呈正相关外，其他地区的个人风险评估与危险行为均呈负相关。结构方程模型分析表明，风险评价特征是风险行为的结果的模型优于作为感觉寻求与风险行为之间关系的中介的风险评价模型。
This study evaluated the relationships between sensation seeking and impulsivity, appraisal of risk in several areas including crime, financial, social violations, sports, and risk of AIDS from sexual activity, and risky behavior in the same areas. Subjects were 447 undergraduates who were given personality tests, and risk appraisal and risky behavior scales developed from factor analyses. Multiple regression analyses showed perceived peer behavior and sensation seeking to be strong predictors of risky behavior, particularly in the areas of criminal behavior and social violations. Personal risk appraisal was negatively related to risky behavior for all the areas except AIDS risk where it was positively related to risky sexual behavior for men. Structural equation modeling analyses showed that a model specifying that risk appraisal trait is a consequence of risky behavior was superior to a model with risk appraisal as a mediator of the relationship between sensation seeking and risky behavior.
