The Penn State Worry Questionnaire, the Intolerance of Uncertainty Scale, the Korean version of the Anxiety Control Questionnaire, and the Social Problem Solving Inventory-Revised were administrated to 343 university students and 71 vocational college students. In addition, Independent t-test and multi-groups analysis were performed for comparing between groups: schools and genders. First, significant correlations among all variables were found. Second, the structural model of intolerance of uncertainty, perceived control and negative problem orientation that affects worry was proved to be appropriate. Third, structural equation modeling revealed that negative problem orientation mediated the paths from intolerance of uncertainty and perceived control to worry, and the direct paths from intolerance of uncertainty and perceived control was also significant. Forth, this study showed that vocational college group scored higher on negative problem orientation and there were significant gender differences on all variables, but multi-groups analysis indicated there were no differences between male and female groups. Limitations, implications and suggestions for future research are discussed
