Typological features of subjective well-being of modern youth

Introduction. Interest in the research topic is associated with the request of university drivers, employers regarding the personal and regulatory resources of today's youth. The ability to set a goal and strive for its implementation, to realistically assess expectations and develop one's potential, reveals one's experiences through the solution of an experimental analysis. The aim of the study was to determine the individual typological characteristics of young people, taking into account their subjective wellbeing, conscious self-regulation and tolerance for uncertainty. We assumed that this or that type is largely due to the development of regulatory-cognitive processes and, in part, a specific set of regulatory-personal properties, as well as personal attitudes towards tolerance for uncertainty. Participants and research methods. The study sample consisted of young students aged 18 to 35 (average age 20.7±3.5 years, N=1435). Techniques were used to diagnose the subjective perception of a person, conscious selfregulation, tolerance/intolerance to uncertainty. Mathematical and statistical data processing includes standardizing, k-means clustering and configuration-frequency analysis of the distribution of selected clusters. Results. Cluster analysis revealed 7 groups of students who differ statistically significantly in all the diagnosed parameters. A comparative analysis of the selected groups was carried out, their psychological characteristics were given. It is established that the manifestation of typological features of subjective well-being is based, on the one hand, on certain structural and functional features of conscious self–regulation, and on the other hand, on the formation of an attitude of tolerance to uncertainty. It is proved that a high level of conscious self-regulation, perseverance and constancy in achieving the goal of activity in psychologically stressful conditions of life are significant factors of subjective well-being, preventing and/or leveling the development of dysfunctional states. It has been proven that a high level of conscious self-regulation, perseverance and sensitivity in the goal of activity (perseverance) in conditions of stressful states of life are identified as sensitive factors of subjective passage, preventing and/or leveling the development of dysfunctional vessels. Practical significance. The presented results of an empirical study clearly demonstrate the possibility of applying a differential typological approach to subjective well-being, allow us to describe the differential aspects of the relationship between subjective well-being, conscious self-regulation, attitudes to tolerance for uncertainty and identify the main directions of practical work with young people in the direction of developing conscious self-regulation and improving their subjective well-being.
