Abstract
The article discusses the problem of the influence of digital space and the digital environment on the cognitive processes of primary school children and adolescents. The authors cite and theoretically analyze the characteristics of a personality included in digital space. The contradictions in the ideas about the influence of digital space on the personality are noted: on the one hand, digital space can have a negative impact on the formation of cognitive processes, on the other hand, stimulate their development. The authors empirically investigated such parameters as verbal and logical thinking, behavioral features in the digital environment, attention characteristics and strategies for overcoming stressful situations. It was revealed that the respondents of all groups of the sample have developed classification skills rather than the skills of establishing semantic analogies. The results of the study showed that adolescents with high Internet activity choose impulsive, manipulative and aggressive actions as coping strategies, less often they choose such as seeking social support and cautious steps.
Highlights
The world of postmodernity is rapidly developing, raising a tsunami of information that is not assimilated by the human brain, destroys the barriers of memory and perception
The results of the study led to the following conclusions: 1. Digital socialization of children and adolescents is a cross-border phenomenon of the modern era and its result in the formation of a digital personality
Digital identity is the result of digitizing personal data, needs, activities and relationships
Summary
The world of postmodernity is rapidly developing, raising a tsunami of information that is not assimilated by the human brain, destroys the barriers of memory and perception. Society is rapidly moving away from technogenic to technocracy, acquiring new opportunities and new problems along this way. In the desire to cover all information flows, a person striving for multitasking delves into information and digital diversity. The result is distorted cognitive processes leading to passive perception of information or difficulties in processing this information. Clip thinking has become the main metaphor of the last decade. Against the background of mass computerization, the concepts of education are changing. If 20 years ago humanity was distrustful of the very possibility of distance education, today distance education is as real as the traditional form of education
