Поло-ролевые и личностные детерминанты доверия в межэтнических отношениях в поликультурном социуме Северного Кавказа

Annotation

The publication presents the results of an empirical study of psychological factors influencing trust in interethnic relations, based on data from 390 respondents — representatives of the Ossetian, Russian, Chechen, and Kabardian ethnic groups living in the Republic of North Ossetia — Alania, the Kabardino Balkarian Republic, and the Chechen Republic. The study employed a set of psychodiagnostic methods and methods of multivariate statistical analysis. The study revealed that the level of trust in other ethnic groups is determined by personality traits (openness, self control, suspicion), identity characteristics (civic / ethnic), the nature of interethnic experience, and socio demographic factors. It has been shown that the gender factor has a statistically significant impact only in the Kabardian sample, whereas in representatives of the Ossetian, It has been shown that the gender role factor has a statistically significant impact only in the Kabardian sample, whereas among representatives of the Ossetian, Russian, and Chechen ethnic groups, gender role differences are offset by more powerful factors — the type of family (poly / mono ethnic), place of residence (rural / urban), and type of occupation. The ethnocultural specifics of the revealed patterns are analyzed, and practical recommendations for interethnic relations programs are proposed.
