There is limited literature on the relationship between sensation seeking and adolescent risk behaviors, particularly among African Americans. We tested the association between psychometrically-derived subscales of the Zuckerman Sensation Seeking Scale and the intercepts and slopes of individual growth curves of conduct problems, sexual risk taking, and substance use from ages 13 to 18 years by sex. Boys and girls had different associations between sensation seeking and baseline levels and growth of risk behaviors. The Pleasure Seeking scale was associated with baseline levels of conduct problems in boys and girls, baseline substance use in boys, and growth in sexual risk taking and substance use by girls. Girls had the same pattern of associations with the Danger/Novelty scale as the Pleasure Seeking scale. Knowledge about the relationships between adolescent risk taking and sensation seeking can help in the targeted design of prevention and intervention programs for the understudied population of very low-income, African American adolescents.
关于寻求刺激与青少年风险行为之间的关系，相关文献有限，尤其是在非裔美国人中。我们通过性别测试了从心理测量得出的祖克曼寻求刺激量表的子量表与13至18岁行为问题、性风险行为和物质使用的个体生长曲线的截距和斜率之间的关联。男孩和女孩在寻求刺激与风险行为的基线水平和增长之间存在不同的关联。寻求愉悦量表与男孩和女孩的行为问题基线水平、男孩的物质使用基线以及女孩的性风险行为和物质使用增长有关。女孩与危险/新奇量表的关联模式与寻求愉悦量表相同。了解青少年冒险行为与寻求刺激之间的关系有助于针对低收入非裔美国青少年这一研究较少的人群，有针对性地设计预防和干预项目。
