Intolerance of uncertainty (IU) is a risk factor for poor mental health. Acquired brain injury (ABI; for example, stroke, traumatic brain injury) often brings considerable uncertainty and increased mood disorder vulnerability. The Intolerance of Uncertainty Scale-Short Form (IUS-12) is a brief, ...
Pandemic-related uncertainties and intolerance of uncertainty (IU) could negatively affect physicians’ well-being and functioning, being associated w
Intolerance of Uncertainty is associated with numerous psychopathologies, including generalized anxiety disorders. However, several studies differ in the factor structures applicable for the Intolerance of Uncertainty Scale (IUS), and there exists a debate regarding the factorial and construct validity. Thus...
The Scale of Setting Life Goals with Respect to Positive Psychotherapy, the Visions about the Future Scale, the Career Engagement Scale, and the Intolerance of Uncertainty Scale were employed as data collection tools. Data were analyzed using correlation analysis, structural equation modeling methods, ...
Tolerance of uncertainty, extroversion, neuroticism and attitudes to randomized controlled trials among surgeons and physicians Respondents completed a short self-assessment of Eysenck personality dimensions, Budner's Intolerance of Ambiguity scale and a short questionnaire about ......
Responses were ranked on a five-point Likert scale ranging from 1 (“never”) to 5 (“constantly”). Cronbach’s alpha was 0.80. IU was assessed using the IUS-12 item scale (Carleton et al., 2007) to measure the intolerance of uncertainty. Participants indicated whether they agreed with ...
Intolerance of uncertainty was measured using the Intolerance of Uncertainty Scale (IUS) (Buhr and Dugas, 2002), which is a 27-item measure that asks participants to respond on a Likert scale ranging from 1 (“Not at all characteristic of me”) to 5 (“Entirely characteristic of me”). ...
Methods: A dimensional approach which take individual differences into consideration in different components of IU along a full range of normal to abnormal symptom severity levels of GAD were used in this study. Components of IU were measured by 12-item Intolerance of Uncertainty Scale and symptoms...
Intolerance of Uncertainty Scale (IUS) The IUS (Freeston et al.,1994) is a 27-item self-report questionnaire assessing the behavioural, emotional, and cognitive reactions to uncertainty and situations involving ambiguity, along with attempts at controlling the future (example item: “Uncertainty make...
