Ordalie, sensation-seeking and impulsivity. Critical analysis of definitions

CONCLUSION: We were able to describe areas of divergence and convergence between these three concepts but not to establish a quantitative diagram of the areas of divergence and convergence. It would seem that the coexistence of sensation-seeking and impulsivity in the same individual could explain that individual's involvement in ordalique behaviors. Further studies approaching this hypothesis would seem useful in terms of preventing risk-taking behaviors such as addictive behaviors.PMID:34099245 | DOI:10.1016/j.encep.2021.02.016
