Abstract

Introduction. We have lived for more than three centuries in the old academic paradigm, which claimed that the world existed forever and no one created it. In the 20th century, as a result of discoveries, first of all, in the field of quantum physics, there was formed the hypothesis that our Universe, including the Solar System, arose as a result of the Big Bang.Today we are on the verge of creating a theory of everything, which would be based on the superstring theory that can unite the theory of general relativity of Albert Einstein and the theory of quantum mechanics. It is assumed that the aforementioned theory will unite four main Universe interactions: gravity, strong and weak nuclear interactions, and electromagnetism. This should give answers to questions that have worried humanity for many years, for example: “How and where did the Universe originate from? What is its true nature? How did life begin on earth? What does the anthropic principle mean, according to which man appeared and evolved?”Purpose. The purpose of the article is to disclose the author's vision of human development in the system of personality formation. To compare how these ideas are described in the existing and innovative knowledge systems.Methods. Was used a system of theoretical and empirical research methods to achieve the goal and reveal the relevance of the topic: analysis, deduction, induction, modeling, abstraction, as well as specific research methods, such as observation and experiment.Results. The article reveals the essence of the concept of "consciousness" and gives serious remarks to the traditional theory of human cognition. The article contains rationale of the use of innovation ontological paradigm and introducing a new scientific direction - quantum psychology.Originality. The essence of fundamental differences between ideological approaches in traditional and innovative systems of knowledge about a person has been revealed.Conclusion. We are convinced that there is necessity to introduce in the nearest future a new scientific direction - quantum psychology. The proposed direction is not an alternative to the existing system (psychoanalysis, behavioralism, Erickson’s direction, gestalt-direction, hypnosis, etc.). It is complementary to the current system of psychological science and logically fills the gaps that were not previously taken into account. Our strategy is to create the direction of quantum psychology. It coincides with the ideas of such prominent scientists in the area as Robert Wilson, Stephen Volynsky, John von Neumann, and others.In our opinion, the basis of the system of knowledge in the field of quantum psychology should be provided by harmoniously combined experience from the spheres of the traditional branches of Western psychology, the philosophy of the East (Eastern traditions), quantum mechanics, and a new philosophical paradigm based on the ontological model represented by the formula "Consciousness - Information - Energy - Matter. " In this scientific direction, Consciousness as the only and main substance of the Genesis of the Universe, in contrast to the psyche, which in modern psychology is its main subject, must possess an exceptional and appropriate place for in the multidimensional human life, as well as a basic subject of psychology.
