Intolerance of uncertainty (IU), the tendency to find negative, is a fundamental transdiagnostic dimension across anxiety-related disorders. Over past two decades, there has been an increase in both clinical and experimental research on role IU maintenance treatment However, lack integration findings from mechanistic perspective, which slowed progress translational research. This review seeks fill this gap by synthesising (e.g. randomised controlled trials) lab-based) literature psychological mechanisms that drive change The highlighted that: (1) cognitive restructuring, supported such as appraisal, modify IU-related cognitions, (2) behavioural exposures, inhibitory learning, alter cognitions physiological arousal, (3) mindfulness techniques underpinned attentional monitoring, decentering, acceptance, cognitions. Across different therapeutic reviewed, was evidence for how emotions behaviours. Directions further include directly comparing effectiveness produce anxiety disorders other mental health disorders, examining specificity over anxious traits. Overall, provide foundation future efforts build upon maximising existing interventions and/or develop novel target dispositional situational uncertainty-related distress beyond.
