STRUCTURAL ORGANIZATION OF THE SPECTRAL PATTERNS OF EEG IN THE PROCESS OF LEARNING A FOREIN LANGUAGE AND ITS RELATIONSHIP WITH THE ACOUSTIC SPEECH PROSODY

The article is devoted to the peculiarities of the organization of spectral EEG patterns in medical school students studying the foreign language. It is shown that students successfully mastering the training program have a higher absolute spectral power of the alpha, beta, and theta rhythms of the left hemisphere. Students with a low level of knowledge of foreign language speech revealed to have mostly right hemisphere dominance. Functional tests with listening texts in a foreign language, as familiar and not previously studied, revealed the specialization of hemispheres in respect to acoustic prosody of foreign languages.
