Abstract

Mentality as a psychological category stands out for its historicity, multifactoriality and variability and is the subject of a wide scientific discourse, tends to interdisciplinary analysis. In science, such facts are known as the mutual influence of the quality of life and a sense of existential security; the influence of public consciousness on the rate of economic growth; interdependence of quality of life and subjective satisfaction with life; differences in the perceptions of predominantly wealthy and needy segments of the population about the causes of poverty. The economic mentality of Russians seems to be a structural component of Russian polymentality and requires consideration not only of the nature of the influence on the economic behavior of the individual, but also on the economic development of the country as a whole. It was revealed that the analysis of message texts and search queries in the Google system will allow to show that in economies of various types there are psychological patterns of interest in economic phenomena. The proposed approaches allow us to consider that there are elements of the economic mentality that originated in the USSR and are preserved in the new economic conditions, demonstrating that foreign users are not identical in terms of the nature of the similar interest. As it turned out, interest in wages prevails at the heart of Russian requests, foreign users are more focused on obtaining information about entrepreneurial and investment income. The problem requires further study and substantiation of the psychological factors underlying economic phenomena.
