[Electrophysiologic characteristics of functional interhemispheric asymmetry].

Change of biopotentials spatial synchronization under functional loads addressed predominantly to one or the other hemisphere (correlative analysis of the first EEG derivative of more than two thousands healthy subjects of various age), allowed to single out three phenotypes of hemispheric relations differing mainly by different types of information processing: right-hemispheric, left-hemispheric or mixed. Expressed EEG activation in both hemispheres (judged by alpha-index change) is manifest when the subject is presented with a task, the context of which does not correspond to the initially dominating type: in right-hemispheric--at solution of tasks, oriented to logical-verbal context and in left-hemispheric--to spatial-image one. The high level of non-specific EEG activation may be considered as an attempt of compensation of relative functional insufficiency of the right hemisphere systems in initially left-hemispheric or left-hemisphere systems in right-hemispheric individuals.
