Examining the Association between Displaced Aggression and Sensation Seeking

The present study aims to examine the association between displaced aggression and sensation seeking among adults and to identify whether there is a significant gender difference in these variables. Displaced aggression refers to the redirection of aggressive feelings toward targets other than the original source of frustration, while sensation seeking involves the tendency to seek novel, intense, and stimulating experiences. A quantitative correlational research design will be used for the study. Data will be collected from adults using standardized psychological scales. The collected data will be analysed using descriptive statistics, Pearson correlation, and independent samples t-test. The findings are expected to identify the relationship between displaced aggression and sensation seeking and determine whether significant gender differences exist among adults.
