本文以239名大学生为样本，对不确定性不耐受量表（IUS）的维度及其相关因素进行了研究。除了完成IUS之外，参与者还完成了担忧、焦虑唤醒、快感缺失抑郁、五大人格维度和关闭需求量表的测量。对IUS的因素分析表明，它包括以下几个方面：(A)对可预测性的渴望；(b)面对不确定性而变得麻木的倾向；(c)面对不确定性时感到痛苦的倾向；(d)僵化的不确定性信念。在因子分析的基础上计算的子量表得分与其他变量有差异相关。(C) 2007 Elsevier Ltd.版权所有。
The dimensionality and correlates of the Intolerance of Uncertainty Scale (IUS) were examined in a sample of 239 university students. In addition to completing the IUS, participants completed measures of worrying, anxious arousal, anhedonic depression, the big five personality dimensions, and the Need for Closure Scale. A factor analysis of the IUS suggested that it includes the following dimensions: (a) desire for predictability; (b) tendency to become paralyzed in the face of uncertainty; (c) tendency to experience distress in the face of uncertainty; and (d) inflexible uncertainty beliefs. Subscale scores computed on the basis of the factor analysis were differentially associated with the other variables. (C) 2007 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
