Temporal changes in tolerance of uncertainty among medical students: insights from an exploratory study.

CONCLUSIONS: Tolerance of ambiguity - but not other types of uncertainty - decreases during medical school, suggesting that TU is a multidimensional, partially mutable state. Future studies should measure tolerance of different uncertainties and examine how TU might be improved. PMID: 26356230 [PubMed - in process]
