Abstract
the research topic is that one of the most important issues in human behavior is the inclination to rational and irrational thinking. The research goal is to identify the causes and factors that contribute to this or that thinking. The research methods included: historiographical analysis of the scientific discourse of the topic under study. In the empirical part of the work, the main research method was a laboratory experiment, which was planned as an individual interaction between the experimenter and the subject in two stages. In the first stage, the subject was given difficult tasks. And at the second stage – simple. Tasks according to the criteria of complexity and simplicity were selected on the basis of the material of the academic discipline. As a result, the following pattern was revealed; The easier the task to be solved and the higher the rewards and risks in such a task, the more a person relies on rational thinking. In the opposite situations, where a person's awareness is lower, there is a greater tendency to irrational and intuitive thinking, and rewards and risks catalyze this effect. The experiment made it possible to establish the factors and causes that influence the emergence of rational and irrational thinking, to measure their quantitative and qualitative indicators and characteristics.
