психомоторика

In the article the author presents a description of the historical and theoretical analysis of the changing views of scientists – from classics to contemporaries-on the content of the conceptual and terminological apparatus for studying psychomotor phenomena. The purpose of the work is to study and analyze scientific approaches to the definition of the concepts of “psychomotor” and “psychomotor abilities”, as well as to identify the constituent and system-forming components of the phenomena behind them.

The problem of correlation between musical preferences of listeners and their individual psychological features is examined in this research work, with particular focus on the correlation between an individual’s degree of psychomotor problem solving success and the character of his/her musical preferences. The data obtained as a result of the research testifies in favor of the assumption of an existence of such a correlation.
