Role of intellectual emotions in regulation of thinking

The phenomenon of emotional regulation of thinking is considered. The concept of dynamic system of senses is used as the criterion of the analysis of empirical data. This system (functional system) is formed in course of the problem solving. In this system the intellectual emotions are identified with the mechanisms of coordination between the object peculiarities of the problem situation and the sense structures actualized in it. The development of the operational senses - the dynamic form of sense existence are considered as the basis of intellectual emotions functioning.
