Prediction of high-risk behaviors based on intolerance of uncertainty and parental transplantation in adolescents

The purpose of this study was to predict the tendency toward high-risk behaviors based on the uncertainty of tolerance and parental transplantation in adolescents in Saveh city in 1395. The research method was descriptive-correlative in terms of applied purpose and in terms of collecting data. The statistical population consisted of all high school students in district 2 of Saveh city. Among them, using Kerjesi and Morgan tables and 193 cluster sampling method, 193 students were selected as sample size. Data were collected based on three standard questionnaires: Uncertainty Imbalance, Freiston et al. (1994), High Risk Behavior Questionnaire (1992), and Parental Linkage Questionnaire (Locke et al., 2005). Data analysis was performed using SPSS-24 software in two descriptive and inferential sections (Pearson correlation coefficient and multiple regression). The results of the research showed that there is a positive and significant relationship between uncertainty and its components with high risk behaviors. The results also showed that there is a negative and significant relationship between parental transplantation and high risk behaviors. In general, the results of the study confirmed the role of parental bonding and uncertainty in the prediction of high-risk behaviors.
