Intolerance towards Uncertainty and Self-Adjustment of Women Working in Essential and Critical Sectors
Journal Title: International Journal of Social Science And Human Research - Year 2023, Vol 6, Issue 10
Abstract
Women who work in essential and critical sectors experience increased stress and anxiety during the Covid-19 pandemic. The results of previous research explain that intolerance to uncertainty and adjustment are related to psychological disorders such as stress, conflict, tension, frustration, depression, worry, and anxiety disorders. This research aims to determine the relationship between intolerance of uncertainty and the adjustment of women working in essential and critical sectors. The instruments used were the Personal Adjustment Scale and The Intolerance of Uncertainty Scale-Revised Italian Version (IUS-R Italian). The respondents in this study were 473 female workers in essential and critical sectors who worked in Jakarta, Bogor, Depok, Tangerang, and Bekasi. The research results show that place of work, type of work, and marital status can influence the level of intolerance of uncertainty in working women. The results of the correlation analysis show that the intolerance of uncertainty variable is correlated with the self-adjustment of working women. The results explain that the intolerance of uncertainty contributes to 10.4% of the self-adjustment variable. These results also explain that the self-adjustment variable contributes 10.4% to the intolerance of uncertainty variable.
