Annotation: The article scientifically substantiates the interrelation between logic and intuition in the process of scientific cognition and highlights its distinctive features. It argues that, alongside logical methodological foundations, the socio cultural context of science must also be taken into account, since it is reflected in the values embedded in any discipline. Additional distinguishing properties that set scientific cognition apart from other forms of intellectual activity are tied to—and defined by—the characteristics mentioned above. Scientific inquiry implies a conscious stance not only toward the object under study but also toward the researcher’s own activity: awareness of the conditions, norms, and methods of investigation, respect for established traditions, and so forth.

Keywords: scientific cognition, subject, object, cognitive process, desire, delight, consciousness, unconsciousness, rationality, doubt, mechanisms.
