The aim of the research is to study the psychophysiological features of reaction time in Paralympic athletes of various sports. Athletes of the Russian national teams in curling, wheelchair curling, Musculoskeletal disorders taekwondo, orienteering (deaf sports), football (deaf sports) were determined indicators of simple and complex sensorimotor reactions, as well as their sensory and motor components. The results of the study revealed the best indicators of visual motor reactions in athletes with disorders of the musculoskeletal system, which practically do not differ from healthy ones. The worst response values are observed in athletes with impaired sensory sphere, that is, those involved in sports in the category “sports of the deaf”. The best (smallest) values of the motor component of the reaction time, even in comparison with healthy athletes, were found in athletes involved in orienteering (deaf sports), which can be considered as a compensatory mechanism formed in response to impaired sensory functions. The data obtained can be used to assess the psychological and psychophysiological readiness in the programs of scientific and methodical support for athletes with disabilities. |
