dc.description.abstractThis study compared the Sensation Seeking Scale (SSS) total score and subscale scores of assembly workers and non-assembly personnel. A sample of 25 assembly area workers (15 females, 10 males) and a sample of 25 non-assembly (14 females, 11 males) personnel were administered the SSS. The SSS total score and the four subscale scores were obtained for each each subject in the two groups. The two-way analysis of variance was employed to analyze the SSS total score and the four subscales. The analysis yielded significant gender differences on the total score and the disinhibition subscale of the SSS. This study indicates that there may be a gender difference on SSS scores and that further research needs to be conducted to investigate any possible relationship between occupation and SSS scores.en_US
