What is abstract thought? In the classical sense, abstraction is an idea that has no objective incarnation. Every act is concrete, but humanism is an abstraction. With abstract thinking, a person thinks. There are no details, no details. It is the ability to think, it helps to find a solution in a desperate situation, is to tell a different vision of the world. There is nothing unequivocal in the world. If you follow the exact knowledge, you can not notice much. The world does not live exactly according to the instructions written by the person. Much has not yet been learned. When a person does not know something, he turns on abstract thinking, this helps him to conjecture, to make judgments, to discuss. Abstract thinking is useful in situations in which a person can not find a way out, when it is in a so-called intellectual impasse. It is necessary to know the types, forms and purposes of the development of abstraction in psychology and the types of man's thinking as a whole.
