Abstract: The presented report focuses on the possibilities of identification and specification of indicators which enable prediction of occurrence of cognitive distortions. On the sample of 130 male and female managers a new original methodology labeled as PCD (Prediction of Cognitive Distortions) was verified. Proposal for this methodology was based on the concept by Beck, who described formation and effects of dysfunctional cognitive schemas and cognitive distortions. It is clear that these distortions occur both in personal and work areas of life. The report also presents findings and knowledge which enabled extraction and specification of two predictors of occurrence of cognitive distortions in the work of managers. According to their content, these factors were defined as Distorted selection of facts and Over-generalization.
