As well as the conscious attitude of a person to his activity and to himself, is formed through reflection, since it is reflection that helps to identify his attitude to perceived reality. From this it follows that reflection is defined as the process and result of human interaction with himself and the world around him. Professional reflection is characterized by interactivity, since it is dialogical in nature and oriented towards feedback. First, the future educational psychologist interacts in the process of communication with other subjects in communication, and displays the cooperative and communicative aspects of professional reflection. Secondly, the feedback follows from the subject himself, in the process of internal dialogue, and then professional reflection manifests itself in the intellectual aspect. Professional reflection contributes to the formation of a generalized view of the profession, the content and structure of the activity among future psychologists. In the context of our research, the question of the relationship of professional activity with reflection, which is aimed at developing intellectual reflection (self-awareness, understanding and orienting of the subject’s actions), personal reflection, self-organization through self-knowledge and self-analysis (understanding one’s own state of internal mental acts, their mental activity), interpersonal reflection through the activities of a joint partner (the interaction between the subjects of each other uga with access to reflective position).
