The relevance of the problem is due to the importance of studying the factors that determine the type of people's attitude to dangers. The aim of the work was to identify the relationship of sensitivity to threats, the choice of adequate or inadequate ways to respond in situations of danger with the parameters of the Dark Triad of personality (Machiavellianism, narcissism, psychopathy). The study involved students of the Cherepovets State University (N=103 people, average age 18.29 years). The author's questionnaires to identify sensitivity to threats and ways to respond in situations of danger, as well as a Short questionnaire of the Dark Triad of personality by D. Jones and D. Paulhus in the adaptation of M.S. Egorova, M.A. Sitnikova and O.V. Parshikova were used as diagnostic tools. As a result of empirical research, it was found that narcissism is positively associated with sensitivity to threats and the choice of adequate ways to respond in situations of danger, Machiavellianism positively correlates with exaggeration of danger, and psychopathy negatively correlates with sensitivity and positively – with the underestimation of dangers. The study confirmed the conclusion existing in psychology that narcissism is the "light" side of the Dark triad of personality. The results obtained can be used in the process of forming an adequate type of attitude to dangers among students.
