To examine the role of sensation seeking in female sexuality, the Zuckerman's Sensation Seeking Scale was administered to a nonclinical population of married women. Comparative assessments were made between two matched samples of high and low sensation seekers on frequency of sexual intercourse, marital satisfaction, sexual desire, sexual arousal, sexual assertiveness, sexual attitudes, and sexual satisfaction. Although the high sensation seekers demonstrated significantly greater sexual desire, sexual arousability, and a more positive attitude toward sex, there were surprisingly no differences between the groups on frequency of sexual intercourse and sexual assertiveness. Also, the women classed as low sensation seekers reported greater marital and sexual satisfaction.
