ABSTRACT

The article presents the features of the inner world of the main character in Fyodor Dostoevsky’s novel Crime and Punishment. The cognitive-emotional test was used as a method for studying the reflective profile of a literary character. Based on mathematical data processing and qualitative analysis, it was possible to create a reflective portrait of Raskolnikov, revealing his defensive reflective strategies and tactics that contributed to the character’s crime.
