Iconic reflection is a special type of storing in memory visual images of objects and phenomena of reality, which is a non-recoded reproduction of these images using words or other signs. And about. the objective world is clearly presented as a person saw it.
I. o., in contrast to the center of the oral or figurative lexical type, has a certain objective basis. It is based on the sensory perception of an object, which is divided into two forms: expressive and receptive iconicity. The expressive form of iconicity of object representations arises as an involuntary reaction to a sensory stimulus of external influence. The basis of receptive iconicity is the joint actions of the human visual and auditory analyzers. Thanks to the simultaneity of visual and kinesthetic perception, combined images or complex syncrets are created in which visual and motor sensations are closely intertwined. The images generated in this case can be adequate to the reflected object. Therefore, they are called icons of visual-motor images.
