The article presents modern means of scientific communication in forming research competence of the future psychologist. Based on the study of modern research approaches to the development of scientific communication, the use of scientific communication in the process of forming the research competence of the future psychologist is presented. On the basis of theoretical study of the material, the research of the development of scientific communication of future applicants of the second (Master’s) level of higher education in the process of the project assignment in the discipline «Professional foreign language communication» is presented. The peculiarities of the formation of research competence and usage of scientific communication by future psychologists are determined. The study of the ability to use scientific communication was performed by the following indicators: 1) the ability to justify the purpose of the research problem, 2) the ability to describe the stages of solving the scientific problem, 3) understanding of research data (digital and visual), 4) ability to substantiate findings from scientific research, 5) ability to present the results of the study, logically justify them. In addition to examining the ability to use scientific communication during project presentation, each student was asked a questionnaire with questions designed to assess his or her personal ability to use scientific communication during project preparation and presentation. As a result of our research, it was determined that future psychologists have no significant experience in scientific communication, in particular in the process of presentation and discussion of scientific research. On the other hand, working in the course of your own research as a form of scientific communication does not cause such extraordinary difficulties for future psychologists.
