The author has developed unique structural- functional model of information- psychological security (IPS), where turbulence phenomena development and usage is a great part. To explain the essence of «turbulence of thinking» and the ways of its formation from IPS point of view. «Turbulence of thinking» is a specific cognitive process, based on informal and heuristic approach to situational analysis and decision-making (experience, creativity, intuition, adroitness, inventiveness etc). Such way of thinking could be formed both by the way of focused actions from the state and civil society (informational culture formation, new type of educational space creation (so called «heuristic education»)) and by the way of personal self-improvement (lateral thinking, psychic energy management ability, definite personality aspects and behavioral strategies development). IPS threat because of various destructive turbulent phenomena is a very acute problem nowadays. There is need to find the ways of adequate reaction to this problem. Educational process changes to form corresponding informational cultural level for people, ability of heuristic thinking and, consequently, ability to stand effectively against various informational challenges and manipulative impacts are very necessary at present. The main personal protective mechanisms are informational security culture formation and informational self-defense ability development. Turbulence as a specific neuro-psychic phenomenon is an effective mechanism in the IPS structure and it has been formed by the means of actualization, special educational and self-educational personal procedures.
