Sample characteristics (N = 98).
| Adults | Adolescents | Test-statistic (df) | p-value | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Female / Male (N) | 31/21 (52) | 26/20 (46) | Χ2(1) = 0.10 | 0.957 |
| Age (years) | 23.92 (3.41) | 15.43 (1.07) | t(62.09) = 17.05 | < 0.001 |
| Depression (ADS-K)a | 4.27 (3.04) | 4.73 (3.85) | t(95.00) = -0.66 | 0.509 |
| Intolerance of Uncertainty (UI-18)b | ||||
| Total | 40.63 (12.48) | 33.29 (9.52) | t(94.00) = 3.21 | 0.002 |
| Act | 12.24 (4.92) | 10.29 (3.23) | t(87.18) = 2.32 | 0.023 |
| Burden | 8.37 (0.87) | 7.89 (0.75) | t(94.00) = 2.90 | 0.005 |
| Vigilance | 14.47 (5.06) | 11.98 (4.35) | t(94.00) = 2.57 | 0.012 |
Note. Gender is reported in absolute frequencies and all other data are reported as mean and standard deviation (M (SD)). T-tests use Welch-correction for unequal variances if necessary. ADS-K = Allgemeine Depressionsskala Kurzversion (Hautzinger et al., 2012; German short version of the Center for Epidemiologic Depression Studies – Depression Scale, Radloff, 1977). UI-18 = Unsicherheitsintoleranzfragebogen (Intolerance of Uncertainty Questionnaire, Gerlach et al., 2008).
