title: [Learnability and individual frequency characteristics of EEG alfa activity].
abstract: The aim of the study was to determine correlations between individual frequency characteristics of EEG alfa activity (individual frequency of maximal alfa spectral peak IFMA, alfa band width--IABW, alfa spindle variability--AA, length--T, and steepness--S) and individual psychometric intelligence characteristics, calculated EEG-predictors, and real learnability indices. The subjects were 129 healthy men aged 16-50. The results show that people manifesting high IFMA along with low variability and the longest duration of alfa spindle, exhibit better performance in acquiring empiric knowledge. The best learnability is a distinctive feature of people with the highest IFMA and the widest IABW.
