Abstract

Theoretical thinking is determined by the content operations included – content analysis, planning, and reflection. Our study is aimed at analyzing the relation between individual characteristics of theoretical thinking development in early adolescent period. We introduce the idea of the relation between formal and dynamic characteristics of thinking and content thinking operations. Content planning, which is one of the main theoretical thinking operations, is regarded as a factor of its development. The types of planning actions are distinguished according to differentiation-based positions in learning activity. The study gives the results of correlation analysis, which is used to check the relationship between the types of planning action. It has been found that children who have the polar types of planning actions (reflective-analyzing – guessing) are statistically more often characterized as those who have the polar cognitive styles. Such cognitive styles as field independence, lability, and generality are more typical for children with a reflective-analyzing type of planning action. Children with a guessing type of planning action are more likely to have other cognitive styles – field dependence, rigidity, and concreteness. Children with an analyzing type of planning action tend to have such cognitive styles as field independence, rigidity, and generality.
