Humans encounter uncertainty every single day throughout their lives. Difficulty coping with uncertainty is a core characteristic for many individuals dealing with various psychological disorders. Our clinical research explores new ways to measure different responses to uncertainty and examines its significance across various disorders. Additionally, we are developing interventions designed to help individuals cope with uncertainty more adaptively and beneficially.

This research is led by Dr. Omer Linkovski, a senior faculty member in the psychology department. Individuals interested in participating in our research are invited to contact us via email at: cpaus.experiment@gmail.com
