SYNERGETICS AS A NEW THEORY OF SELF- ORGANIZATION AND ITS BASIC POSITIONS – THE LEGACY OF HERMANN HAKEN. RESEARCH INTO THE PRINCIPLES OF BRAIN FUNCTIONING: BRAIN ACTIVITY, MOTOR BEHAVIOR, VISUAL PERCEPTION. THE END OF THE 20TH CENTURY. ARTICLE TWO

Abstract

Actuality. New theoretical foundations of synergetics initiated by G. Haken and some conceptual models of psychosynergetics and alphalogy by I. Yershova-Babenko are presented. Research of the brain in synergetic, on the one hand, and the product of the combined activity of the brain and psyche – on the other. The goal is to present the legacy of the initiator of synergetics, the German scientist G. Haken, and to show some steps in science of the late 20th century in Ukraine. To show the transition in philosophy, methodology, and science from a complex whole consisting of separate parts (in synernetics) to the relationships between complex wholes (in psychosynergetics and alphalogy). Methodology and conceptual model. G. Haken’s methodology of synergetics in brain research is based on the movement towards using a single parameter that arises and subordinates various activities to itself. And in psychosynergetics and alphalogy, the conceptual model of the “The whole-in-The whole” is based on the hyperintegrity/unity of the aggregate activity of the human brain and psyche and the emergence of the “product” as a subject. Results. The theoretical concept of synergetics by G. Haken was created on the basis of self-organization (a new theory of self-organization). A psychosynergetic conceptual model, an alphalogical concept and a hypertheory were created, which express the combined activity of the brain and psyche as a nonlinear whole.
