Abstract
The effects of Intolerance of Uncertainty (IU) and Sensory Processing Patterns (SP) in anxiety in children (8-15 years) were studied. 39 parents completed the Intolerance of Uncertainty Scale for Children, Sensory Profiles 2, and Multidimensional Anxiety Scale 2 for Children. The results revealed that IU and SP independently predicted anxiety.
