先前的研究表明，不确定性构成了一个强大的压力源（例如Monat，Averill，Lazarus，1972; Zakowski，1995），尽管对不确定性反应的个体差异尚未得到充分研究。来自不确定性反应量表（URS-Greco & Roger，2001）的不确定性反应-情绪因素测量了不确定性被视为压力的程度的个体差异。本文通过一项实验，在实验引起的不确定性期间测量生理唤醒，讨论了不确定性与健康之间的关系。结果表明，不确定性反应情绪预测增加收缩压和舒张压在一段时间的预期发生之前，可能的威胁未知的强度。(C)2002爱思唯尔科技有限公司版权所有。
Previous research has shown that uncertainty constitutes a powerful stressor (e.g. Monat, Averill, Lazarus, 1972; Zakowski, 1995), although individual differences in reactions to uncertainty have not been investigated adequately. The Uncertainty Response-Emotional factor from the Uncertainty Response Scale (URS-Greco & Roger, 2001) measures individual differences in the extent to which uncertainty is perceived as stressful. This paper addresses the relationship between uncertainty and health by means of an experiment in which physiological arousal was measured during a period of experimentally-induced uncertainty. Results showed that Uncertainty Response-Emotional predicted increases in both systolic and diastolic blood pressure during a period of anticipation prior to the occurrence of a possible threat of unknown intensity.
