Psychophysiological features in elite hockey players aged 15-16

Aim. The article deals with studying the features of sensorimotor integration and movement coordination in elite hockey players aged 15-16. Materials and methods. A prospective longitudinal study was performed in the competitive phase of preparation. Hockey players aged 15-16 participated in the study (n = 36; attackers and defenders). The control group consisted of 16-year-old students from the college of physical education (n = 15). We performed an examination with the help of NS-PsychoTest software and hardware equipment (Russia, Neurosoft). We assessed the functional status of cortical centers of the nervous system, as well as the speed and accuracy of simple and complex eye-motor reactions. We determined the level of sensorimotor and voluntary movement coordination with the help of tremorometry. Results. Compared to peers, hockey players aged 15-16 possess a higher level of functional indicators under interference conditions (p
