The thinking of a manager is conditioned by their motivational features which determine their personal professional success and the effectiveness of the organization’s activities. In this study, we assumed that two groups of sales and advertising managers had differences in the relationships between thinking style and their motivational qualities, as well as their individual need for achievement. We used the following sources: The methodology of A. Belousova for the diagnosis of thinking styles, the “scale of control over action” by J. Kuhl, and “the need for achievement” by Yu.A. Orlov. The selection consisted of 61 people, 25 to 30 years of age, of which 41 were men and 20 were women, from organizations engaged in the sale of a technical group of goods (also known as Group A) and advertising services (also known as Group B), in Rostov-on-Don. The Spearman rank correlation method was used for quantitative data processing. In group Group A, the analysis showed the presence of statistically significant connections. A critical style of thinking has a significant relationship with the level of clarity about the need for achievements and practical thinking is statistically significantly interrelated with control over action in a situation of failure. Whereas, in Group B, an initiative, managerial, and practical style of thinking has a significant correlation with the need for achievement.

“…There are many studies conducted within the scope of Sternberg's theory. These studies were conducted on participants with different characteristics, such as university students (Abdi, 2012;Emir, 2011;Heidari & Bahrami, 2012;Huincahue et al, 2019;Varol et al, 2014;Zarei & MierHashme, 2012), high school students (Celik & Kumral, 2016;Demir & Erginsoy-Osmanoglu, 2013), educational administrators (Balgalmis & Baloglu, 2010), teachers (Akcay, 2019;Canpolat, 2011;Saricoban & Kirmizi, 2020;Sokmen & Kılıc, 2016), university leaders (Alshammri & Alenezi, 2021), and engineers (Gridley & Cripps, 2014). Thinking styles may change with self-sufficiency, reflective thinking, thinking needs, academic performance, metacognition skills, grade level, age, undergraduate program, socioeconomic perception, parent education level, creativity, and empathy skills (Emir, 2011;Rana et al, 2022).…”

The identification of the thinking styles plays an essential role in determining the educational methods according to the needs of the students. The aim of this study is determination of the relationship between thinking styles, metacognition, and academic achievement of occupational therapy students (OTS). In the 2018‐2019 academic year, OTS (n = 117) completed student data form, the Inventory of Thinking Styles, and the Scale of Metacognitive Skills. Kruskal–Wallis variance analysis was used to determine whether there was a significant relationship between thinking styles and class variables, and Spearmen correlation analysis was used to determine the relationship between thinking styles and academic averages. OTS prefer legislative, hierarchic, judicial, and liberal thinking styles most frequently. OTS tend to prefer the oligarchic, local, and liberal thinking styles towards the last year. Furthermore, a positive low to moderate correlation was found between the metacognition and the legislative, executive, hierarchic, local, internal, and liberal thinking styles. Thinking styles of OTS is crucial for occupational therapy education. To better understand the complexity of students thinking styles, future studies should conduct different regions.

A number of foreign scientists' works show the importance of creative thinking and practical style of thinking activity in the educational activities of engineering students [11]. The critical style of thinking is less pronounced in students of technical and creative fields.…”
