Purpose: study and analysis of correlations between neurodynamic characteristics and cognitive activity and cognitive activity styles of highly qualified female fencers. Material and Methods: 21 highly qualified female fencers (CMS, MS) representatives of the youth national team of Ukraine in saber fencing participated in the studies. A set of tests was proposed for implementation on the hardware and software computer complex «Multipsychometer-05». The complex of tests consists of three blocks and covers the study of neurodynamic characteristics, cognitive characteristics and cognitive activity styles. As a result, 42 indicators were obtained. Analysis of the correlation fields of psychophysiological indicators revealed the presence of predominantly linear relationships between variables, which justified the use of the Pearson correlation coefficient (r) to assess the strength and direction of the relationship. Statistical data processing was carried out using a personal computer and specialized software (MS EXCEL, STATISTICA 10.0). Results: solving simple mental tasks depends on the quality of a simple visual-motor reaction. More complex cognitive tasks, reflected in the tests «Ravenʼs Progressive Matrices» and «Establishing Patterns», in addition to rapid information processing, require certain mental operations (longer in time), therefore, there is a direct correlation between the indicators of a simple visual-motor reaction and the indicators of complex cognitive tests. In the group of highly qualified fencers, there is a tendency for inhibitory processes to prevail over excitation processes, this fact explains the presence of a feedback loop with the speed of complex cognitive tasks and the accuracy of simple cognitive tasks.Functional mobility of nervous processes, as a fundamental property of the nervous system, characterizes the speed of information processing and the speed parameters of decision-making, which confirm the results of the analysis of correlations in solving cognitive tasks of varying complexity. Analysis of correlations between indicators of nervous system strength and cognitive tests allows us to conclude that the frequency of touches, as a characteristic of the average real level of motor activity, affects the qualitative and quantitative results of cognitive activity of highly qualified fencers, both when solving simple cognitive tasks and when solving complex cognitive tasks. Analysis of correlations between neurodynamic characteristics and cognitive activity styles allows us to conclude that the fundamental properties of the nervous system have an impact on the formation of individual, stable features and characteristics of the subject, which determine the uniqueness of the strategies that he uses for selecting and processing information, solving problems, learning and other types of cognitive activity. Conclusions. Analysis of the obtained results of correlations indicates that neurodynamic characteristics have moderate, noticeable and strong relationships with cognitive characteristics (p<0,05). There are also correlations between neurodynamic characteristics and psychoemotional states of athletes, which are characterized by the features of cognitive and activity styles (p<0,05). This allows us to conclude that neurodynamic parameters serve as the basic psychophysiological basis of cognitive productivity and individual activity style.
