This article covers a number of thesis concerning actual problematic of creative and productive thinking examination. Brief analysis of the concept of creative thinking in the context of structural dialectical thinking is provided as well. Notions of structure and multidimensionality are discussed when applied to examination of intellectual creation. New concept is introduced in the framework of dialectical thinking theory – this is structural flexibility of thinking (SFT). Also one can find results of the study dedicated to experimental examination of the interconnection between dialectical thinking and SFT (through usage of authorial diagnostic tools). The conclusion indicates that the presence of ability to perform dialectical transformations determines the ability to “turn the problem into an opportunity” by means of mental putting of the problematic object to the context of different structural interconnections.
