Cognitive-correctional potential of athletes in e-sports

Relevance. Functional activation of the cognitive axis of the brain underlies the psychoneurocorrection of cerebral and many other dysfunctions. In the literature, there are prerequisites for the presence of psychoneurocorrectional properties of esports associated with the impact on aggressive emotionality through the cognitive sphere - as a methodical technique and as an element of physical culture. There is not enough data on this, although detailed information could contribute to the arsenal of preventive and corrective means. There is a need to supplement the presented interdisciplinary problems with new physiological facts. The purpose of the study is to identify psychophysiologi-cal facts confirming the cognitive-correctional potential of esports. Methods. Standardization of individual cyber-accuracy, correlation analysis, biofeedback (BOS): psychocorrective al-pha-theta-BOS training on EEG, modified questionnaire of innate forms of aggressiveness with calculation of index-depth aggressiveness. Results. The indicator of standardized individual cyber-accuracy of the player of the youthful period of ontogenesis positively correlates with the parameters of correctional alpha-theta-BOS training:the index and power of the alpha rhythm in the central occipital lead (one of the markers of cognitive activity), the power of theta activity, the index of theta activity at the final stage of the biofeedback session, the index and power of the user range, the value of the parameter of the final effectiveness of psychocorrection. 2) The background indicator of physical and indirect aggressiveness of the subject is positively associated with his cyber-accuracy and with the index of theta activity of the EEG of the final stage of psychocorrection. Conclusion. The psychophysiological facts about the presence of cognitive-correctional potential of esports, available in the format of the formation of physical culture of the individual, are revealed: 1) as the cyber accuracy of the player increases, the values of the electroencephalographic parameters of the corrective alpha-theta-BOS training increase: the index and power of alpha activity, the power of theta activity, the index of theta activity at the final stage of the biofeedback session, the index and power of the user range, the final effectiveness of correction. 2) Individually more pronounced physical and indirect aggressiveness simultaneously contribute to: achieving an esports result and increasing the EEG theta activity index of the final stage of psychocorrective training, sublimation of behavioral aggressiveness into the formation of physical culture of the individual.
