Abstract

At present, the problem of predictors of successful learning of programming and mastery of computer thinking is becoming especially urgent. The authors proposed to analyze the structure of the intellectual abilities of students of different education profiles to identify the intelligence features of future information technology specialists. The study involved 319 first-year students of the Ural State Pedagogical University of Yekaterinburg. To study the characteristics of computer intelligence indicators, a universal intellectual test was used. The following factors were identified in the structure of the intelligence of computer scientists: 1) probabilistic-mathematical, 2) verbal-informational, 3) visual-spatial. The mathematical intelligence of computer scientists is not associated with verbal-logical thinking because the leading factors are the ability to consistently work out the hypotheses put forward on the basis of an intuitively distinguished general property of a cognizable phenomenon. The authors also found that digital technologists quickly switch to various mental actions, relying on various forms of spatial manipulations with a cognizable object.
