Problems of information and psychological analysis confrontations in the logic of metamodern psychology

The analysis of the phenomenon of «information-psychological confrontation» as a direction of scientific research and practical activities of subjects in the realities of the metamodern of the XXI century is presented. The transformation of the world community, the development of technologies, AI, databases, biotechnologies (BEGEN), their complex application for destructive purposes have exposed new threats. The aim of the work was the theoretical substantiation of the phenomenon of «information-psychological confrontation » in the logic of the methodology of the psychology of the metamodern, and the refinement of the conceptual elements of the probabilistic model of the selection of technologies. The research methodology and methodology includes a system-activity approach and principles: virtuality, interactivity, digitality and oscillation. Associated activities within the confrontation have become a single genetic basis for its deployment. The general scientific method of cognition, included a theoretical and methodological analysis of sources, generalization, analysis, comparison. Systematization provided the flow of empirical and theoretical data using the methods of discourse and comparative analysis. In order to interpret paradigmatic texts, the techniques of hermeneutics, methods of metamodern psychology and political psychology were extracted. As a result of the analysis of the Anglo-Saxon model of confrontation, the essence is revealed, the methodology is refined, the author's edition of the definition is introduced. Analysis of promising technologies, problems of hybridization of confrontation, stages of their development, have determined the range of issues of psychological science to counter threats and challenges. The promising technologies of confrontation and the conceptual elements of the probabilistic model of their selection have been substantiated. It is based on the principle of oscillation with its mechanism for eliminating rigid structures and introducing conceptual diversity through flexible tools. In conditions of aggravated geopolitical rivalry, an adequate analysis and reaction of power structures is in demand. The development of theoretical foundations and bringing the confrontation system to a new level becomes relevant and is a novelty. In conclusion, the direction of further scientific research of various aspects of information and psychological confrontation was determined.
