[A. A. Ukhtomskiĭ's ideas in studies on the cognitive activity]
Abstract
Experimental data on spatial and temporal organisation of the human EEG from birth to maturity, at resting and during cognitive activity, is presented. The data obtained is interpreted in light of a confirmation of the Ukhtomsky's ideas on the "functional working organ" appearing in the brain for realising cognitive processes. Role of the alpha-rhythm in formation of plastic intracortical neuronal network is elucidated. A hypothesis is advanced stating that the gradually developing brain system exerting a local regulated activating effects upon the cortical level, is a significant factor of the functional intercentre integration.
