Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Sensation-seekers actively seek out new and exciting experiences, often taking risks and pushing boundaries to achieve a "high" or thrill. This describes individuals who engage in extreme sports, travel to unknown places, and engage in other intense activities for the excitement and stimulation they provide. Options B and D are incorrect as they refer to broader psychological concepts and not specifically related to seeking novel experiences. Option C is a close second but lacks the specific connotation of pursuing adventure and excitement.
