Correlation analysis identified intrasensory and sensory-effector interactions of the interspike intervals of components of brainstem acoustic evoked potentials with measures of hand movement coordination. A role for the propagation of excitation via the ascending fibers of the rostral part of the pons and the lateral loop in the mechanisms of auditory-motor coordination was established. Gender differences were found in the integration of elements of the sensorimotor system depending on the lateralization of incoming auditory information and the complexity of the motor task performed. In men, the mechanism of auditory-motor coordination was less determined in nature than in women. This probably also determines their higher levelof bimanual coordination. The optimal error-free performance of the motor program in men was based on prognostication, while in women it was by correction of mistakes.
