description The objective of this study was to validate the 9-item Sexual Sensation Seeking Scale (SSSS-9) in a population of Mexican adults married or cohabiting with a partner of the opposite sex. A sample of 807 participants was collected (53.4% women and 46.6% men, 90.1% married and 9.9% cohabitants) from random sources. The SSSS-9, one scale of unfaithful behavior and other one of attitude toward marital exclusivity were applied. The SSSS-9 showed very high internal consistency. The number of factors was one through Horn’s parallel analysis. The one-factor model had a good fit and was valid across both sexes through confir-matory factor analysis. The distribution of SSSS-9 showed positive asymmetry. Its average was higher among men than among women. SSSS-9 had a high correlation with un-faithful behavior, and moderate with attitude toward marital exclusivity. It is concluded that the properties of SSSS-9 are better in this population than those reported with SSSS-11 in other populations.
