A Transdiagnostic Investigation of Intolerance of Uncertainty on Anxiety Symptomology and Decision-Making

Intolerance of uncertainty (IU) is implicated in the development and maintenance of psychopathology and is associated with symptom reduction across clinical interventions. As such, IU is conceptualised to be a transdiagnostic and transtherapeutic process. The findings of this research programme highlight the potential significance of disorder-specific IU as a proximal pathway between trait IU and psychopathology, and provide insight into the structure of IU and its association with threat perception and decision-making behaviour across contexts
