Intolerance of uncertainty as a mediator of reductions in worry in a cognitive behavioral treatment program for generalized anxiety disorder

J. Bomyea, H. Ramsawh, et al.

Growing evidence links intolerance of uncertainty (IU) to generalized anxiety disorder (GAD). In a sample of 28 individuals receiving CBT with bi-weekly assessments and multilevel mediation models, reductions in IU were found to mediate reductions in worry and accounted for 59% of the worry decrease, supporting IU as a critical mechanism in GAD. This research was conducted by J. Bomyea, H. Ramsawh, T.M. Ball, C.T. Taylor, M.P. Paulus, A.J. Lang, and M.B. Stein.
