This preference has its roots in the Cartesian model of thinking, which assumed that every problem should be enough to dismember components, as far as possible. Meanwhile, in the everyday life of a man meets a growing number of problems requiring a systemic approach. Their solution is possible only if a holistic approach, taking into account the full complexity of the issues. While dividing the problem into its components contribute to total vision loss phenomena and processes. An example of the problem requires thinking in terms of system is to protect the environment. The article attempts to collect the psychological foundation for the formulation of assumptions to develop technical creativity in the context of modern information technology.
