Resumen
Antecedentes: Aunque los modelos de personalidad de rasgos se han consolidado como los modelos hegemónicos
para describir la personalidad y tienen capacidad para predecir variables de interés psicológico (p. ej., trastornos
mentales), existen lagunas acerca del por qué los rasgos de personalidad predicen esas variables. Hipotetizamos que
intolerancia a la incertidumbre, sensibilidad a la ansiedad y metacognición podrían responder parcialmente a dicho
por qué. Método: Se analizó: (1) la relación entre estas tres variables y las cinco dimensiones del modelo Big Five (n
= 914; 51,7% mujeres) y (2) la relación entre estas variables y las facetas del neuroticismo (n = 656; 55,7% mujeres).
Resultados: La intolerancia a la incertidumbre se relacionó con neuroticismo, extraversión y amabilidad, mientras
que la sensibilidad a la ansiedad mostró estar relacionada con neuroticismo. Ambas se relacionaron también con las
seis facetas del neuroticismo (salvo impulsividad para la intolerancia a la incertidumbre). La metacognición no mostró
relaciones significativas con ninguna de las dimensiones. Conclusiones: El presente trabajo arroja luz sobre el por qué
subyacente a las relaciones potenciales entre los rasgos de personalidad y conductas relevantes, siendo la intolerancia a
la incertidumbre y la sensibilidad a la ansiedad de gran importancia, especialmente para el neuroticismo.
