The necessity of studying the Bernstein effect “repetition without repetition” is dictated by the absence of quantitative description of this effect and models that could describe such unique phenomena as repeated limb movements in a person in various mental states. In 30 nominally healthy volunteers (15 men, 15 women aged 24-25 years), tappingrams and tremorograms were recorded using an eddy current sensor with an oscillatory circuit (1 MHz) and an amplifier with recording frequency 0-1000 Hz and minimum amplitude of 0.01 mm. The results were recorded as files, processed as matrices of paired comparisons of samples, the number of matching sample pairs was determined (significance level p>0.05), and phase trajectories of finger movement were plotted. The effect was observed for both tapping and tremor and it is advisable to calculate the parameters of quasi-attractors that changed upon shifts in homeostasis.
