The EEG was recorded from five monopolar leads: a spontaneous one as well as the EEG during verbal-logical or visual-spatial tests, in humans. The subjects with prevailing visual-spatial abilities had a spontaneous EEG with a low intercorrelation between the hemispheres and a higher level of the EEG synchronisation in parietal-occipital areas as compared with the frontal those, whereas subjects with prevailing verbal abilities had an inverse correlation of the above EEG parameters. The parameters' interrelationships in subjects' spontaneous EEG seem to reflect an individual and specific character of cerebral neurodynamics suggesting a negative correlation between the verbal-logical and visual-spatial abilities in humans.
