S. F. Sergeev
St. Petersburg
Keywords: reduction, consciousness, education, learning

Abstract

The article presents a brief overview of the reduction mechanism as it manifests itself in all levels of human cognition. The reduction mechanism profoundly influences the development of the human knowledge structures, which tends to rely on the experience the person gets from the daily activities. We introduce the reduction as a self-organizing pulsation component in the “primitive-complex” framework, which provides the cognitive system functioning.
