The SSS has been related to a variety of sports and sport performance (Zuckerman, 1983; Robinson, 1985; Rowland, Franken & Harrison, 1986; Babbitt, Rowland & Franken, 1990). Specifically, research has shown high sensation seekers to engage in high risk activities such as sky-diving (Hymbaugh & Garrett, 1974) auto racing and hang gliding (Straub, 1982) and mountain climbing (Fowler, von Knorring & Oreland, 1980; Robinson, 1985). A thorough discussion of the literature is provided by Zuckerman (1983)
