Sensation seeking, a personality trait, has been shown to predict engagement in high-risk behaviors. However, little is known regarding the impact of sensation seeking on substance use among street youth. We therefore sought to modify a sensation seeking scale (SSS) for use among this population. Street youth from the Vancouver-based At-Risk Youth Study (n = 226) completed the modified SSS. Exploratory and confirmatory factor analysis (EFA/CFA) were undertaken to establish the scale's dimensionality and internal validity. The association between SSS score and injection-related behaviors was tested using generalized estimating equation analysis. EFA results indicated scale unidimensionality. The comparative fit index (CFI) suggested acceptable fit (CFI = 0.914). In multivariate analysis, sensation seeking was independently associated with injection drug use, crystal methamphetamine use, polysubstance use, and binge drug use (all p < 0.05). Our findings provide preliminary support for the use of the modified SSS among street youth.
寻求刺激作为一种人格特质，已被证明能预测个体参与高风险行为的情况。然而，关于寻求刺激对街头青少年物质使用的影响，我们所知甚少。因此，我们试图对寻求刺激量表（SSS）进行修改，以便在这一人群中使用。来自温哥华高危青少年研究的街头青少年（n = 226）完成了修改后的SSS。进行探索性和验证性因素分析（EFA/CFA）以确定该量表的维度和内部效度。使用广义估计方程分析来检验SSS得分与注射相关行为之间的关联。EFA结果表明量表具有单维度性。比较拟合指数（CFI）显示拟合度可接受（CFI = 0.914）。在多变量分析中，寻求刺激与注射吸毒、使用冰毒、多物质使用和暴饮暴食吸毒独立相关（所有p < 0.05）。我们的研究结果为修改后的SSS在街头青少年中的使用提供了初步支持。
