In recent times, psychology has become interesting to a huge number of people, more and more willing to learn how to explain the behavior of others from a scientific point of view, to find the causes and consequences of various actions. And the concept of the human psyche with the basic forms of its manifestation is one of the central in psychology. In the most general sense, this phenomenon is a person's spiritual world with all its needs, attitudes, knowledge, goals and interests. And this world expresses itself in such external manifestations as speech, facial expressions, behavior and activity.
Basic forms of manifestation of the psyche
On the one hand, there are only two forms of existence of the psyche - objective and subjective. The first is reflected in the activity and life of the person, and the second implies reflection in oneself. This form is manifested in a person later and includes self-consciousness, reflection, introspection.
But there is another structure that reflects the main forms of manifestation of the human psyche. There are three large groups, including various types of mental manifestations.
1. States: apathy , creativity, oppression, sustained interest, etc.
2. Mental processes:
- volitional;
- emotional (feelings, mood, reactions);
- cognitive (perception, speech, sensation, thinking, memory, attention, imagination).
3. Characteristics of personality: character, direction, ability, temperament.
At the same time, each of the forms of manifestation performs its own function, making the mental processes continuous, and the properties of the personality and state are so diverse. It is the complexity of the structure and the diversity of manifestations that make the subject of the human psyche so interesting for study.
