Resumo: The intolerance of uncertainty factor is a construct that implies difficulty for the individual in dealing with unforeseen contexts. The literature indicates that intolerance of uncertainty can have a negative impact on well-being, especially when experiencing an unexpected context, such as the Covid-19 pandemic. From this perspective, this study aimed to perform a synopsis of what has been studied about the intolerance of uncertainty in higher education students during the Covid-19 pandemic through a scoping review. Data was collected in the EMBASE, MEDLINE/PubMed, Web of Science, PsycINFO, and CINAHL databases using descriptors in English. From the application of eligibility criteria performed by two judges, nine studies were selected. The three main research topics of the studies analyzed were the relationship between intolerance of uncertainty and 1. characteristics involving mental health, 2. fear, and 3. academic activities and career aspects. Most studies showed a lack of tolerance for uncertainty as a predictor of negative factors. In addition, it was found that no interventions directed toward the construct were carried out in the studies. The present review highlights the ability to tolerate uncertainty as a relevant component to be evaluated in students and the importance of carrying out psychological interventions aimed at the intolerance of uncertainty in precarious contexts.

La literatura indica que la intolerancia a la incertidumbre puede tener un impacto negativo en el bienestar, especialmente cuando se vive un contexto inesperado, como la pandemia de Covid-19. En esta perspectiva, el objetivo de este estudio fue realizar una sinopsis de lo estudiado sobre la intolerancia a la incertidumbre en estudiantes de educación superior durante el contexto de la pandemia del Covid-19 a través de una scoping review. La recolección de datos se realizó en las bases de datos EMBASE, MEDLINE/PubMed, Web of Science, PsychInfo y CINAHL con descriptores en inglés. De la aplicación de los criterios de elegibilidad, realizada por dos jueces, fueron seleccionados un total de nueve estudios. Los tres principales temas de investigación de los estudios analizados fueron la relación de la intolerancia a la incertidumbre con 1. características relacionadas con la salud mental, 2. el miedo y 3. actividades académicas y aspectos profesionales. La mayoría de los estudios mostraron una falta de tolerancia a la incertidumbre como predictor de factores dañinos. Además, se constató que en los estudios no se realizaron intervenciones dirigidas al constructo. La presente revisión destaca la capacidad de tolerar la incertidumbre como componente relevante de ser evaluado en los estudiantes y la importancia de realizar intervenciones psicológicas dirigidas a la intolerancia a la incertidumbre en contextos precarios.Compreende-se que o fator intolerância à incerteza é um construto que implica na dificuldade do indivíduo em lidar com contextos imprevistos. A literatura indica que a intolerância à incerteza pode apresentar impacto negativo ao bem-estar, principalmente, quando se está vivenciando um contexto inesperado, como a pandemia de Covid-19. Nessa perspectiva, o objetivo deste estudo foi realizar uma sinopse sobre o que foi estudado sobre a intolerância à incerteza em estudantes do ensino superior durante o contexto de pandemia de Covid-19 por meio de uma scoping review. A coleta foi realizada nas bases de dados EMBASE, MEDLINE/PubMed, Web of Science, PsychInfo e CINAHL com descritores em inglês. A partir da aplicação dos critérios de elegibilidade, realizada por dois juízes, selecionou-se um total de nove estudos. Os três tópicos principais de pesquisa dos estudos analisados foram a relação da intolerância à incerteza com 1. características envolvendo saúde mental, 2. medo, e 3. atividades acadêmicas e aspectos de carreira. A maioria dos estudos evidenciou a falta de tolerância à incerteza como preditor para fatores prejudiciais. Além disso, verificou-se que não foram efetuadas intervenções direcionadas ao constructo nos estudos. A presente revisão destaca a habilidade de tolerar a incerteza como um componente relevante de ser avaliado em estudantes e a importância na realização de intervenções psicológicas direcionadas à intolerância à incerteza em contextos precários.Editora Mackenzie2023-05-09info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfapplication/pdfhttp://editorarevistas.mackenzie.br/index.php/ptp/article/view/1529410.5935/1980-6906/ePTPPE15294.enThe Journal Of Psychology: Theory and Practice ; Vol. 25 No. 2 (2023); ePTPPE15294Revista Psicología: Teoría y Práctica; Vol. 25 Núm. 2 (2023); ePTPPE15294Revista Psicologia: Teoria e Prática; v. 25 n. 2 (2023); ePTPPE152941980-69061516-3687reponame:Psicologia (Universidade Presbiteriana Mackenzie.
