Ambiguity tolerance–intolerance

Ambiguity tolerance is the ability to perceive ambiguities (contradictory issues which may be difficult to understand) in social and cultural behaviors as well as information with equivocal (several) meanings in a neutral and open way.

Ambiguity tolerance is an important issue within the development of the own personality in education and intercultural communication.
