TESTING OF FUNCTIONAL CAPABILITIES OF STUDENTS’ CENTRAL NERVOUS SYSTEM WITHIN THE DISCIPLINE “PHYSICAL EDUCATION”

Abstract

There appear to be no scientific papers dedicated to the issues of the adaptation of students’ central nervous system to physical and mental stresses. Taking into consideration the fact that the beginning of an academic year and students session are a kind of a stressful period (intense mental work, taking tests and examinations, changes in climate and living conditions, biorhythms, etc.), which causes substantial adaptation of the organism adjustment. The researches devoted to the study of the reaction of the central nervous system to physical exercises, tests in physical preparedness, functional tests within the discipline «Physical Education» do not exist in pedagogical practice. The study of the central nervous system reactions to the proposed functional testing with reverse, which in our opinion gives more extensive information about the features of students’ organisms in comparison with other pedagogical and biological tests, is of a particular relevance. The aim of the study is to assess the functionality of the students’ central nervous system within the educational process of physical education with dosed physical load including capacity change in a closed cycle. To assess the utilization degree of the organism physiological reserves, stress regulatory mechanisms, determination of efficiency and effectiveness of the physiological processes these methods were used: the methods of registration of simple visual-motor reaction and the methods of infraslow bioelectric processes taking place in brain. The total number of the students under the experiment was as follows: 86 girls and 64 boys (n = 150) who were undergraduate students (17-19 years of age) and constituted the basic medical group. The studies have shown that the majority of the students aged 17-19 demonstrated these results: the indicators of reflexometer and brain omega-potential in a state of relative muscular rest were within normal limits. Adapting reactions of the central nervous system to physical exercises in a closed cycle in the majority of cases occurred in the direction of increasing and corresponded the reaction activation. It has also been proved that the suggested physical load as part of functional testing causes a normal reaction from the side of the central nervous system and is safe for health. Further studies are aimed at studying the influence of the central nervous system of the students aged 17-19 on testing results of physical preparedness within the educational process of physical education.
