Abstract

Purpose. Modern information society has a high degree of information to all processes of social life, which causes the average person to constantly process a large amount of information and be in constant communication with the information network. The purpose of the paper is to determine how stable and predictable is the perception of the future by members of the information society and how the duration of interaction with the information environment influences personal tolerance for uncertainty. Researchers who are not oriented towards a socially acceptable life path program are expected to have low levels of uncertainty tolerance and an unstructured perception of the future. Methods. The study used standardized survey methods that were processed using descriptive statistics. Diagnosis of personal uncertainty tolerance was conducted using the D. McLane “Indefinite Tolerance Scale” questionnaire. The binding between the duration of consumption and the level of personal tolerance for uncertainty was determined by correlative research methods. Results. According to the results of the study, we found that the researchers, who are oriented to the public development program have a structured perception of the future, holistically imagine their own life path. The subjects of this category have a high tolerance for uncertainty about the lowest, compared to other, indicators of the duration of consumption of information content. Researchers who have a unique life course program have a low level of uncertainty tolerance, a tendency for long-term consumption of information content. The life path is perceived in the context of the near future and there is no complete structure. Conclusions. Personality in modern information society has a low level of uncertainty tolerance, forcing it to stay in constant touch with the information network. This leads to the need to inform the social life of society and to form a high level of information dependence of its member.
