摘要：Factor of an assessment of functioning of science is a system of indicators of overall performance of the scientist as which resultant characteristic quality of researches and development can act acts. It is necessary to understand important parameters (indicators) system from the point of view of the consumer of this product as concept of quality of a scientific product. Mark out the internal efficiency of scientific activity connected with efficiency of results of scientific activity in the science and the external efficiency covering all aspects of use of scientific results out of science. In science of science it is about such parameters of scientific result as efficiency, productivity, usefulness, scientific and technical products value. Efficiency is understood as quantity of the scientific production made by the scientist, and as productivity – ability of the scientist to make scientific production of a certain quality. Usefulness and value of scientific production is considered depending on degree of compliance of quality of scientific production to needs of society for new knowledge. Along with the parameter of novelty of scientific result mark out its objectivity, impartiality, importance of a discovery as in the theoretical plan for development of science, and for its practical use, speaking about theoretical and practical importance, the importance of scientific result, and also the characteristic of its prospects, relevance and originality. One of necessary characteristics of the scientific theory is its predictability, that is aiming at the future, predictive nature of result. Ability to scientific anticipation, creation of model of the future defines objectivity of the content of knowledge, its adequacy, a validity, openness to new experience. Predictive nature of methodological approach, the theory is shown in compliance of the results received in follow-up activity, to results on the basis of which this theory is formulated during the concrete historical period. The purpose of work consists in the analysis of a the predictability as one of criteria of an assessment of scientific result and image of science in general on the example of three-aspect the approaches to the analysis of scientific activity developed by very famous domestic psychologist and the historian of science M. G. Yaroshevsky. The idea that studying of scientific activity has to be carried out systemically, taking into account interrelation of three major aspects of scientific creativity is the cornerstone of the principle of a three-pronged approach of studying of phenomena of science: 1) the subject and logical, reflecting internal logic development of scientific knowledge, representation in the program of activity of the scientist of objective logic of the studied subject; 2) social and scientific, characterizing scientific community in general, the relations in scientific community, a social context of functioning of science, and 3) the personal and psychological, including individual and personal features subject of scientific activity, personal parameters of creativity. The subject of scientific creativity – the scientist, scientific groups, science in general, and the ideas of its existing in society can be analysed in three-dimensional space of subject, social and psychological vectors. Studying of image of science and state scientific policy from the point of view of allocation of subject, social and scientific and personal and psychological components is allowed to study how internal logic of development of scientific knowledge, intellectual activity is shown in dynamics of substantial forms of the organization of process of research, to reveal interference macro - and microsocial factors of creativity and social operating conditions of science, to define interrelation of the external and internal factors of scientific search concretized in individual and psychological features of the scientist.
