Abstract
This article explores the characteristics of the consciousness of Central Asian peoples (based on the example of Uzbekistan and Kazakhstan) through the lens of an epistemological approach, focusing on modes of cognition, mental strategies, and culturally conditioned forms of perceiving reality. The study aims to identify the specificity of cognitive models shaped within traditional worldview systems, including mythological, religious, and ethnophilosophical thinking. The analysis is based on an interdisciplinary methodology that integrates philosophical epistemology, cognitive anthropology, and elements of ethnopsychology. Special attention is given to the influence of historical and cultural conditions on the formation of unique cognitive patterns that shape perception, thinking, and self-identification within society. The findings contribute to a deeper understanding of the mental landscapes of the region's peoples and expand the scope of contemporary epistemological research.
