Overview

AI-generated summary, not a substitute for reading the source.

This cross-sectional study examines the mediating role of fear of happiness in the relationship between intolerance of uncertainty and anxiety among 905 Lebanese adults. The research finds that fear of happiness partially mediates this association, linking higher prospective and inhibitory anxiety to increased anxiety symptoms. The authors suggest that interventions like cognitive behavioral therapy may help address these factors.
