Abstract
In schoolchildren aged nine to ten years, the analysis of EEG indices (spectral power density, the function of coherence in the α band) of different cortex regions in four experimental situations—quiet wakefulness, mnemenic activity, relaxation, and mnemenic activity in the postrelaxation period—was performed. In the mnemenic activity situations, a task for determining the short-term auditory-speech memory span was used. A positive effect of relaxation on the efficiency of mnemenic activity expressed in an increase in the short-term memory span was found. Comparison of groups formed according to the increase in the memory span showed differences in the dynamics of coherence indices. Only in children with a pronounced postrelaxation increase in the memory span in the situation of mnemenic activity was an increase in coherence in the high-frequency subrange of the α band of the EEG detected, whose functional significance is related to selective inhibition.
