- An investigation of appraisals in individuals vulnerable to excessive worry: the role of intolerance of uncertainty (2008, unknown): “Further, when the potential confounding influences of sex, GAD symptoms, and mood variables were statistically controlled, only the ambiguous situations continued to be appraised as more disconcerting by individuals high on IU. This replicates findings reported by Dugas et al. (2005a) who found th”
- Do concerns about climate change lead to distress (2010, background): “Research has shown that individuals with high levels of intolerance of uncertainty show more concern about ambiguous situations and feel more threatened by interpretations of ambiguous situations than those with lower levels of intolerance of uncertainty (Dugas et al., 2005).”
- Hope and Worry in Mothers of Children with an Autism Spectrum Disorder or Down Syndrome. (2011, background): “Worry is generally described in relation to future-related anxiety or fear, as opposed to concern regarding past events (Borkovec et al., 1983; Davey & Tallis, 1994; Dugas et al., 2005).”
- The panic buying behavior of consumers during the COVID-19 pandemic: Examining the influences of uncertainty, perceptions of severity, perceptions of scarcity, and anxiety (2021, background): “Several researchers have argued that uncertainty influences how people anticipate various fearful consequences that make them anxious (Kemp et al., 2014) when they exacerbate the perceived threat (Dugas et al., 2005).”
- Intolerance of uncertainty moderates the relation between negative life events and anxiety (2010, background): “Such appraisals, coupled with the information processing bias toward uncertain aspects of encountered difficulties (Dugas et al., 2005), are likely to inflate perceived threat and therefore raise anxiety levels.”
