Abstract
Psychological readiness for secondary school requires new development tools. The article focuses on conceptual thinking as a factor in the psychological readiness of younger schoolchildren for secondary school. The research objective was to identify the effect of conceptual thinking on psychological readiness for secondary education. Conceptual thinking is a key factor for the development of academic knowledge, as well as for the formation of meta-subject competencies. In fact, it is regarded as a criterion for psychological readiness for academic activities in general. The article focuses on psychological readiness from different angles, e.g., as adaptation to the peculiarities of the academic process. It describes the difficulties that students face in the learning process, as well as analyzes the necessary competencies and neoplasms necessary for secondary school. The authors developed recommendations for effective psychological readiness. The results obtained can be used for pedagogical and psychological support.
