MAIN STAGES OF DEVELOPMENT OF SYSTEMS-EVOLUTIONARY APPROACH IN PSYCHOPHYSIOLOGY

The present paper generalizes experimental data and notions about neurophysiological bases of behaviour and mind in the works of the laboratory of neurophysiological bases of the mind of the IP RAS. for 20 years. The development is shown of the notions about systems processes in a <<single>> behavioural act and in the organization of behavioural continuum, about the specialization of neurons in various structures of the brain in learning, about the meaning of the parameters of slow potentials and about the relationship between micropotentials of the human brain and behavioural characteristics. A solution is suggested of the psychophysiological problem and the formulation is given of the systems-evolutionary approach to the study of brain, mind and consciousness.
