“…Intolerance of uncertainty (IoU) is a trait characterised by the overvaluation of predictability and the tendency to become overwhelmed by the unexpected or the unknown (Birrell et al, 2011;Carleton, 2016;Koerner & Dugas, 2006). In neurotypical populations, IoU is recognised as a dispositional risk factor in the development of generalised anxiety disorder (Carleton et al, 2012;Freeston et al, 1994) and plays a substantial role in social anxiety (Boelen & Reijntjes, 2009;Teale Sapach et al, 2015), obsessivecompulsive disorder (Holaway et al, 2006;Lind & Boschen, 2009;Tolin et al, 2003) and depression (Carleton et al, 2012;de Jong-Meyer et al, 2009;McEvoy & Mahoney, 2012;Nelson et al, 2014). Across diagnostic groups, meta-analytic studies have revealed a robust association between IoU and anxiety in children (Osmanağaoğlu et al, 2018) and in adults (Gentes & Ruscio, 2011).…”

“…Whilst we may expect a delay between theoretical proposition of a mechanism and generation of a substantial body of evidence investigating its causal influence, the propositions of IU's relevance to difficulties such as GAD (e.g., Dugas et al 1998) and OCD (e.g., OCCWG 1997) are well established, yet sufficient evaluation of causality remains lacking. Notably, IU appears considered a clinically relevant target for intervention (see Gillett et al 2018), despite the limited causal research available to substantiate this focus. This review vehemently echoes Shihata et al (2016) imploration for a greater body of research explicitly exploring IU as a causal mechanism of psychological difficulty through experimental and longitudinal designs.…”

“…In OCD, increased exploration of nonoptimal decks may be related to greater intolerance of uncertainty, reduced confidence in memories and decisions, and increased need for information sampling in the disorder 71 , 72 , 73 , 74 . In other words, OCD patients may have decreased confidence in their assessment of deck expectancies and their memories of previous outcomes, with this underlying an increased tendency to recheck the alternative decks (75) .…”
