“…The validation study in Brazil evidenced a two-factor structure with high correlation between them (0.83) [39], which can indicate the existence of a higher order factor (intolerance to uncertainty) [16,40]. The literature published to the present day indicates diverse evidence of the one-factor solution of intolerance to uncertainty, as well as the use of its overall score [41,42]. The higher the score, the greater the level of intolerance to uncertainty.…”

“…Another limitation stems from ongoing debate regarding whether only the IUS-12 total score should be used or if scores from the prospective and inhibitory IU subscales are acceptable (Hale et al, 2016; Saulnier et al, 2019; Shihata et al, 2018; Yao et al, 2020). While some researchers have found substantial support for a bifactor model for the IUS-12 and have argued that only the total score should be retained for research purposes (Hale et al, 2016; Shihata et al, 2018), other researchers have argued that differentiating the prospective and inhibitory aspects of IU provides clinically relevant and meaningful information and can continue to be explored (Boelen & Lenferink, 2018; Hong & Lee, 2015; Saulnier et al, 2019; Yao et al, 2020). We retained the prospective and inhibitory IU subscales of the IUS-12 for the purposes of the current study given the theoretical and empirical support to do so, while choosing to also report the results for the IUS-12 total score.…”

“…Saulnier et al (2019) have argued that there is enough evidence of discriminatory validity between prospective IU and inhibitory IU to continue to examine the IUS-12 prospective and inhibitory subscales. The argument to continue to examine prospective IU and inhibitory IU as separate constructs aligns with the conclusions of Yao et al (2020); that if the purpose of a study is to examine how prospective and inhibitory IU differentially relate to psychopathology, then the use of the IUS-12 prospective and inhibitory subscales is acceptable.…”

“…Therefore, the scores of each subscale (P, E, N) ranged from 0 to 12, with higher scores demonstrating higher levels of each personality characteristic. The EPQ-RS has been widely used in China and has acceptable reliability and validity ( 60 , 61 ). The Cronbach's α coefficient for the subscales were 0.72 (P), 0.79 (N), and 0.76 (E) in this study.…”
