DEVELOPMENT OF A PROFESSIONAL EDUCATIONAL SYSTEM TAKING INTO ACCOUNT COGNITIVE BIASES IN THE STUDENT'S THINKING
The presence of cognitive biases in a person's thinking complicates the decision-making process, the formation of correct, rational inferences, and, ultimately, reduces the effectiveness of the professional educational system. The following cognitive biases were considered in the work: planning error, illusion of control, herd instinct, confirmation bias, naive realism, deviation towards the result. An author's questionnaire was created to identify the most common cognitive biases among students. This questionnaire was distributed among respondents through the online platform Google Forms. The study involved 429 students, the average age of the participants was 20 years. The results of the questionnaire allow us to conclude that students are most susceptible to planning error (at least 65% of respondents), herd instinct (more than 65% of students), naive realism (more than 56% of students), and confirmation bias (at least 75% of respondents) . When building the educational process, it is proposed to take into account these features of the student's thinking, in particular, to include such disciplines as "Logic", "Methodology of scientific research" in the educational program, as well as to teach students the basics of time management in early courses.
