AB  - The pandemic crisis of COVID-19 led to higher levels of uncertainty for individuals. Mental health has been
outlined as a major key research priority to support and inform interventions. This study aimed to examine
whether uncertainty influenced negative affect which in turn, resulted in worst levels of mental health, during
the COVID-19 pandemic crisis, and test if neuroticism moderated the negative effect of uncertainty on mental
health, via negative affect. To capture changes in daily uncertainty, negative affect and mental health, a daily
design was adopted to test our model. We collected data through five consecutive days (N = 320), in the early
“lockdown” stage of the pandemic. The multilevel results showed a significant mediation effect from daily uncertainty
to daily mental health via daily negative affect. In addition, neuroticism moderated the mediated
relationship, in such a way that the relationship between daily uncertainty on daily mental health, via daily
negative affect was strengthened when neuroticism was higher. In sum, living without unicorns, or see the world
though a black lens, is a factor that enhances the blackness of uncertainty.
