The relationship between sensation‐seeking and Eysenck's dimensions of personality

Eysenck, Sybil, Zuckerman, Marvin·1978·British Journal of Psychology

Abstract

Theory and common correlates suggest a relationship between dimensions of personality measured by the Eysenck Personality Questionnaire (EPQ) and the Sensation‐seeking Scale. In order to examine these relationships, the two tests were given to 219 American and 879 English subjects of both sexes. Sensation‐seeking was positively correlated with the traits of extraversion and psychoticism as measured by the EPQ. There was no relationship between sensation‐seeking and the trait dimension of neuroticism.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
