THE DYNAMIC OF THE DEVELOPMENT OF THE METHODOLOGY, THEORY AND PRACTICE OF THE DEEP COGNITION

Abstract

The article is based on the research of Yatsenko T. S., the Academician of the
National Academy of Pedagogical Sciences of Ukraine. There is highlighted the
psychodynamic theory, in the aspect of its developing, the appropriate methodology and
the active social-psychological cognition method (ASPC).
The article reflects an attempt to carry out a kind of longitude development of the
psychodynamic methodology, theory and practice for over 30 years (since 1978). In the
field of view, in fact, the five aspects of scientific research have been discovered: the
problem of the dynamics of personal and group changes in the process of ASPC;
“psychological defence” in its dispositional and systematic organization: via “vertical” -
basal defence; via “horizontal” - situational defence; the integrative principle of the
“psychological defence” functioning, in subordination to the leading (general) mechanism
“from weakness to strength”; mechanisms, trending the development of the psyche
according to the parameters “mismatching”-“matching”, that has been embodied in the
laws of “positive disintegration and subsequent integration at a higher level of psychic
development”; the structure of the psyche, that reflects the “Model of the internal
dynamics of the psyche”, completing Freud's structure (“Super-Ego”, “Ego”, “Id”) by
linear interdependencies.
The article points out the importance of ascertaining that psychic act is at the
intersection of the “vertical” and “horizontal”, that leads to the conclusions: the behavior
of any one-act (especially spontaneous) synthesizes latently both the conscious and the
unconscious.
Investigations of Yatsenko T. S. introduces a new view at the possibility of cognizing
psychic by means of its visualization, i.e., transcoding in a tangible reality, that increases
the prospects of its research in the unity of the consciousness and unconscious. The article
also presents a statesman, public-official “face” Yatsenko T. S., and relevant awards,
reflecting state recognition, and the content of Author`s school for psychologists of
Ukraine.
