Abstract
The purpose of the study is to identify the personal determinants of constructive and destructive strategies of ethnocultural adaptation among adolescents in a multicultural educational environment.
Research methods and organization. The study involved adolescents aged 15–18 years, representing Russian, Tatar, and Uzbek ethnocultural groups. As personality determinants, indicators of voluntary behavioral self-regulation, emotional intelligence, coping strategies, and character accentuations were considered. To analyze the relationships between personality traits and adaptation strategies, correlation analysis and multiple regression analysis were used.
Research results and conclusions. The obtained data demonstrated that constructive strategies of ethnocultural adaptation are determined by a well-developed system of behavioral self-regulation, the ability to manage emotional states, and a predominance of cognitive coping strategies. Destructive strategies are associated with emotional reactivity, impulsivity, avoidance, and the prominence of certain types of character accentuations. The findings expand our understanding of the psychological mechanisms of ethnocultural adaptation in adolescents and confirm the significance of personal resources as factors in the formation of adaptive behavior in a multicultural educational environment.
