“…Additionally, optimistic mental attitudes, multilingualism, and age could positively influence AT. Elderly people are prone to having the wisdom of life, which leads to a higher degree of AT [4,14,15]. According to sociolinguistics, language and culture are an inseparable whole.…”

“…Rubin [43] regarded the capability to feel at ease toward uncertainty and vagueness as a good language-learning strategy. We mainly focused on the earliest document of Rubin [43], the most cited document [4] of Dewaele [5] with 89 citations, and the latest document of Wei [13]. The interconnections, including cooperation and citation between the earliest and the latest authors, can be seen from the citation network.…”

Against the backdrop of the COVID-19 post-pandemic era, ambiguity tolerance has been the subject of extensive research and scholarship. While ambiguity tolerance has long been a hot topic across multiple disciplines, scant attention has been given to its role in language education via bibliometric analysis. Two authors adopt an integrative study on ambiguity tolerance in sustainable language education to fill this void. Through a general review and visualization analysis, this study seeks to explore the various influential factors that are associated with ambiguity tolerance in language education. Author co-citation analysis (ACA) and the mapping knowledge domain (MKD) are the underlying theoretical frameworks for bibliographic visualization. VOSviewer and CitNetExplorer are two analytical software utilized to visualize bibliographic data. It is concluded that multilingualism, motivation, self-efficacy, and engagement are positively correlated with ambiguity tolerance and collectively contribute to improving language learning outcomes. Future research could further discuss ambiguity tolerance in the application of emerging technologies in the new decade.
