Abstract
The research considers tolerance to ambiguity as the readiness for successful interaction with the world in the face of accelerating change. From the standpoint of the subjective existential approach, the study analyzes the psychological mechanisms that regulate the ambiguity effectively, i.e. personal harmony and maturity, risk acceptance, optimal continuum assessment, capacity for existence, hardiness, and readiness to be engaged in dialogue. The paper shows the results of an empirical research. The sample included Russian young people (N = 120, M = 23.3 years). The author reveals that intolerant personality is characterized by the low self-regulation, the alienation, the reluctance to rely on social support in hardships, the lack of meaning of life, the incapacity for transcendence and existence, the low hardiness, and the lack of autonomy. These features determine the destructive nature of the subjective activity. The negative subjective activity of intolerant young people increases the risk of mind control and falling under the influence of destructive leaders.
