The study selectes fractal and geometric dynamic visual sessions reflecting the information complexity of the environment. It develops an original technology of step-by-step presentation of the texts. This technology allows �to catch� a psycho-physiological markers of understanding and identify the stages in a temporal sequence of the process of understanding. EEG data were analyzed using spectral and nonlinear methods. It was found that the speed and accuracy of understanding depend on the indicators of cognitive style. | ||
