Abstract

Distress tolerance(DT) is an important transdiagnostic construct that has been implicated in the development and maintenance of various psychological disorders. Since DT was suggested many theoretical/empirical studies about the construct have been conducted. Among them there are studies examining the process of withstanding distress and factors that have influence on DT. Several models depicting the process of withstanding distress have been suggested but these are different in the aspects of theoretical perspectives, analysis levels, and ranges of explanation. To improve our understanding about the process of withstanding distress, it is important to compare main features of these models. However there were no studies conducting theoretical review about this subject. Therefore we aimed to review those models that capturing the process of withstanding distress and examine advantages and limitations of them. Moreover we aimed to develop a new model that compensates shortcomings of prior models and suggest some future researches.
