Predict of worry based on behavioral activation and inhibition systems(BAS/BIS), cognitive emotion regulation and intolerance of uncertainty in students

The aim of the present study is the predict of worry based on behavioral activation and inhibition systems، cognitive emotion regulation strategies and intolerance of uncertainty in students. In terms of objective، this study is off is study is the fundamental type، and in terms of data collection، it is of the correlation type. For this purpose، 200 students were selected using convenience sampling (available sampling) from Masters students at the Islamic Azad University of Tabriz in 2014-2015 school year. The participants were asked to answer the measures of behavioral activation and inhibition systems (BAS/BIS)، Cognitive Emotion Regulation Questionnaire (SERQ)، intolerance of uncertainty Scale (IUS) and the Penn state worry Questionnaire (PSWQ). Data were analyzed by the analysis of variance and stepwise regression. Results showed that there was a significant positive correlation between the variables of behavioral inhibition system، negative cognitive emotion regulation strategies، and intolerance of uncertainty in one hand، and worry in another hand (p<0. 01)، and there was a negative significant relationship between the positive strategies of cognitive emotion regulation and worry (p<0. 01). These variables were able to predict 1/54 of the total variance of concern (p<0. 001). In addition، the relationship between the behavioral activator system variable and worry was not significant. Worry is related to a variety of negative consequences، including a high degree of emotional reactivity and inefficient regulation styles. Thus، the findings of this study have practical implications in the clinical arena.
