This study aimed to examine the group psychoeducation effect based on the cognitive-behavioral approach on undergraduates’ intolerance of uncertainty. The study utilized the “pretest-posttest-follow-up test control group” design of experimental designs (9 in the control group and 9 in the experimental group with 18 students in total). Before starting the study, the pretests were performed in preliminary interviews. The Intolerance of Uncertainty Scale was used for the pretests. Once it was observed the experimental and control groups were distributed equally in terms of The Intolerance of Uncertainty Scale, the group psychoeducation was commenced. The post-test was carried out at the end of the 6-session procedure, and the follow-up tests 3 months after the procedure. At the end of the study, the group psychoeducation based on the cognitive-behavioral approach was effective in reducing undergraduates’ intolerance of uncertainty.
