The purpose of this article is to give an overview of the cognitive concept of psychological types, which makes a significant contribution to solving the problems of intercultural communication. Scientists from Moscow International University and the Laboratory of Cognitive Research of Consciousness named after Said Makhdikhon Sattorov (Laboratory of Cognitive Research of Consciousness Said Makhdikhon names) under the guidance of Professor of the Russian Academy of Natural Sciences (RANS) Maira Makhaev have developed a cognitive theory of psychological types, which allows analyzing intercultural communications with positions of psychotypology. The cognitive concept is based on the main provisions of Carl Jung’s concept of psychological types (Jungian Psychological Types Theory). In this concept, a new terminology is proposed to designate mental functions (S, I, E, L), classes of mental functions (class of constructive functions and class of receptive functions), directions of work of functions (exoversion and endoversion instead of extraversion and introversion) and 16 psychological types. The psychological type is described as a cognitive system for receiving, transforming, storing and transmitting information. |
