Intensive development of modern society caused wide spread of new information technologies in various social strata of society, from ordinary employees and workers engaged in metal forming and to persons of the highest social strata.
The study of psychological consequences of the use of information technology is highly relevant.
The psychologists are facing research, diagnostic, remedial and therapeutic problems associated with different types of active drag in new technologies.
In accordance with the basic activities in human-computer interaction (communication, play and learning) there are three forms of personality's change: Internet addiction, game "addiction" and hacking.
These forms of global transformation of personality only in a very small scale became the subject of serious psychological research, especially in the psychology of hacking, which had almost no fundamental psychological research.
Such small development of the above-mentioned problems of personality changes is caused not only by their recent appearance, but also by the peculiarities of these groups.
When studying any group of Internet users (especially when it comes to hyper-enthusiasm for new technologies), the researcher faces the problem of anonymity that is provided by the network and which is attractive to users.
Hacker community is ambivalent to its own anonymity: on the one hand, hackers are seeking to ensure that their actions were known to others, but on the other hand they are trying to keep their identity a secret.
Such anonymity makes it difficult to study this group.
Other important feature of the hacker community is the absence of clear definition of this group.
The media usually pay attention exclusively to the negative side of hacking (hacking and theft of information, development and spread of viruses).
However, this view is one-sided: the hackers are characterized by hyper-enthusiasm for cognitive activity aimed at clarifying the patterns of information technology that does not necessarily lead to any anti-social actions.
On the contrary, it is believed that many good and useful ideas in the software industry were brought forward and implemented by hackers.
A large variety of ideas about the hacking and the ambiguity of the social assessment of this phenomenon cause problems.
The lack of clear limits of the group is due to the rapid development of technology, along with that the process of change of the professionals takes place.
