New information technologies form certain virtual information environment, which is different from the real environment, yet can exercise a full-scale, multi-aspect impact on the personality of the individual who starts interacting with this environment. Different approaches to the definition of the terms "information environment", "impact of the information environment", "the mechanisms of influence of the information environment" are discussed. Highlighted is the necessity to discern between the notions of "managed influence by means of new information technologies" and "impact of the information environment" as a completely new world, certain "infonoosphere".
Keywords: new information technologies, information environment, impact of the information environment, cognitive development
