The Systemic Organization of the Operational Set of Thinking

Abstract

The article presents materials of a theoretical, methodological and empirical-phenomenological nature, revealing and explaining the fundamental pattern of the organization of the most important cognitive process - the essence and structure of its operational set. It is shown that the basic mental operations, which are the operations of analysis and synthesis, abstraction and concretization, comparison and generalization, reproduce in their content and com-position the most important principles and patterns, means and mechanisms of system organization. Because of this, there are homomorphism relations between the set of operations and the mechanisms of the system organization. The significance of this pattern also lies in the fact that it is thinking that largely represents and embodies the procedural content of the psyche as a whole and, consequently, itself.
