Psychometric Properties of Intolerance of Uncertainty Scale (IUS‐5) in a Sample of Nurses: A Methodological Study

This is the first psychometric assessment of the IUS-5 measure of intolerance of uncertainty in a sample of nurses. Results from the current study supported a shorter measure of four items. However, more work needs to be conducted to examine the IUS-4 and IUS-5 in samples of healthcare providers with different cultural and linguistic backgrounds.

Abstract

This is the first psychometric assessment of the IUS-5 measure of intolerance of uncertainty in a sample of nurses. Results from the current study supported a shorter measure of four items. However, more work needs to be conducted to examine the IUS-4 and IUS-5 in samples of healthcare providers with different cultural and linguistic backgrounds.
