Tolerance for Ambiguity in Adult College Students
Miriam Tatzel · Psychological Reports · 1980
Budner's Tolerance for Ambiguity scale was administered to 118 entering adult college students. Students in the Arts were significantly more tolerant of ambiguity than Business students. Six months after students enrolled in the college, faculty could discriminate among them with respect to characteristics related to tolerance for ambiguity. Students in their late 20's were less tolerant of ambiguity than younger or older students; and students in their late 30's saw their lives as relatively more stable than those in their 20's did.
