This is the authors' abstract. We don't add key points for this paper.

The purpose of this article is to research the manifestations of clipped thinking in students when reading scientific texts in the educational process. The study involved 42 students in 2-4 courses studying in the direction of "psychological and pedagogical education" at the Taganrog Institute of A.P. Chekhov. To determine the severity of clipped thinking, we used an experimental survey methodology. Based on the material of students' work with a psychological text, the article examines the peculiarities of students' perception and understanding of certain provisions of the text, depending on the degree of severity of the indicators of clip thinking as a cognitive style, characterized by the efficiency of processing information of a significant volume, areflexia, and insufficient criticality. The study revealed that with insufficient comprehension of the text, some students tend to intuitively use the protective mechanism of avoidance, reducing the assessment of some provisions of the text.
