Methods for the study of mental processes, properties and conditions. /part 6/

The study of types of thinking, thought processes and thought processes can be done with different computer variants of the methods of their study. It is also known that one of the most important conditions for finding the solution of a task is to create the person who decides to do it, trying to solve the task that is done with the existence of a certain level of motivation. This solution can be accelerated or, on the contrary, made difficult by the corresponding attention of the person concerned. That is why, in the study of thinking, one of the main tasks that the researchers place is to study the selective influence of the person's past experience on the solving of the tasks and the influence of the mental attitude on the way of solving the tasks.

Methods of memory research - the use of experimental methods of memory research began at the end of the 19th century, as the founder of the experimental study of memory is considered to be the German psychologist Ebenhaus. He developed and applied in the research practice a number of methods that are still fundamental to the study of memory. The main problem that arises at the beginning of the experimental study of memory, and which is important now, is that the process of remembering information is materially influenced by the thinking of the person, by the semantic organization of the material provided for memorization. Therefore, the main task of memory researchers is to develop ways to remove as far as possible the impact of all additional factors. When testing memory, the experimental material is submitted in two ways: visual and auditory. Methods for memory research are conventionally subdivided into two main groups: - Methods of examining the immediate memory - Determine the number of elements of a given order that the person under study can remember; - Methods of exploring the memory - how much the volume and durability of memory can increase as a result of using special means.

As a rule, learning the immediate memory is a way of studying complicated forms of memory, logical in its composition and long-term in its capabilities. The study of the two forms of memory is the main part of the psychological research of memory, as well as the determination of the common characteristics and regularities of the memory of the people. For memory research, a number of methods have been developed that we now call classical. Depending on the materials and objectives of the study, the classic methods are summarized: - the method of the retained elements of the order; - the answer method or the double association method; - a search method for the true association; - method of full memory; - method of memory volume; - method of retaining information; - recognition method; - display method. The listed groups of methods can be used both individually and in various combinations of one another. It all depends on the specificity of the object of the study and the peculiarities of the research objectives.

And the research material is selected and used according to these peculiarities. In order to take into account the results of the experiments in memory research, a number of indicators are used, the main ones being: a memorandum; Accuracy of memory - Accuracy of memory; error rate; time indicator; metric number of reps. Methods to study emotions - emotions are a daily companion of the life of a person, constantly influencing all his actions and actions, thoughts and memories, etc.
