Abstract
The article introduces a theoretical and empirical analysis of the phenomenon of life stance. It reviews domestic and foreign theories on essence, structure, and genesis of attitudes, as well as systematizes the objective and subjective determinants of the life stance vector. The author revealed a correlation between the structural components of life position (harmony, awareness, activity) in university students: indicators of harmony decreased as activity and awareness of life processes increased. The empirical study also established statistically significant connections between the parameters of the life position and psychological boundaries, Selfconcept, cognitive personal constructs, and metacognitive processes. Self-efficacy, uncertainty tolerance, and analyticity-holism in the perception and comprehension of reality proved especially important, as did the intersubjective aspects of Self-constructs. The vector of personal and life transformations appeared to be determined by tolerance to uncertainty, interpersonal tolerance, a sense of low self-efficacy, dependence on family and friends, priority of interactionism and contextual explanation of ongoing processes, imbalance and suboptimality of psychological boundaries, limited contacts, etc.
