Abstract

Abtract: The relevance of the research is due to the lack of experimental data aimed at studying the cognitive styles of students when learning the "Chess" subject. It is necessary first to study the cognitive styles of primary school students, and then find out how they manifest themselves in the process of learning and mastering the "Chess" subject. The purpose of the study is to identify the manifestations of cognitive styles in primary school students studying “Chess” in grades 3-4. In accordance with the purpose of the study, from the objective psychological complex "Egoscope" the method of Kagan "Comparison of similar drawings" was selected and used. Analysis of the result data shows that the 3rd grade students, regardless of their performance in a given academic year, mostly demonstrate an impulsive cognitive style. The 4th grade students with high academic achievements display a reflexive cognitive style; junior students with average academic achievements also exhibit an accurate cognitive style. A reflective cognitive style is characteristic of the 4th grade students with low academic achievements
