Abstract

The concept of “cognitive unconscious”, widely used in current cognitive psychology, is considered. Main empirical approaches to its investigation are analyzed. Two views on the concept ontology (strong and weak versions of the unconscious) are stated. Finally, the article notes that theoretical consideration of the unconscious has to pay respect to the fact that unconscious and consciousness are genetically related to each other.
