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.
