Abstract

The purpose of research is to analyze the phenomenon of internal speech when reconstructing the experimental situation of the verbal interference effect in the course of solving experimental problems requiring the participation of internal speech.
Methods. To reach the purpose and objectives of the research, the authors made up an experimental technique for creating the effect of verbal interference, which includes 4 stages. At the first stage, listening to the text was accompanied by the mental pronunciation of the poem. At the second stage, listening to the text was accompanied in parallel by an ordinal score. At the third stage, listening to the text was accompanied by a parallel internal reproduction of the poem memorized by heart. At the fourth stage, the text was listened to for control verification. The experiment engaged 22 people, first year students of two groups from Southwestern State University. Both descriptive and discursive texts had been selected for the experiment. As a result, 176 protocols of interrogations of the experimenter and introspection of the subjects were collected.
The results of the experiment showed in favor of a decrease in reproduction rates in situation of introducing an additional task in the break between memorization and playback. The interference effect takes place when similar tasks are presented.
Conclusion. The experimental study allowed to conclude that internal speech depends on the level of complexity and the nature of the problem being solved: internal speech can have both expanded and reduced forms. The internal speech mechanism is characterized by latent verbalization, which is the result of the entire ontogenetic development of an individual language system with the interiorization of both language and other sign systems.
