The study of human motor activity during sleep in the period of adolescence/early adulthood was carried out. The study involved 35 healthy people — 18 women (51.5%) and 17 men (49.5%) aged 18 to 21 years. The data was obtained and processed with the employment of an original information-analytical system developed by the authors. When analyzing the data, we identified and used the following parameters: the number of movements, the maximum value of jerk and the coefficient of motor activity. For the number of movements, the average value was 9.6 and 10.2 for men and women, respectively. For the maximum value of jerk, the average value was 26.4 g/s and 24.3 g/s for men and women, respectively. For the coefficient of physical activity, the average value was 10.3% and 12.7% for men and for women, respectively. Thus, the results of the study are fundamental for understanding the adolescent period of postnatal human ontogenesis, indicate sexual dimorphism, and can also be used in research and practice in the field of physiology, neurology, neurosurgery, psychiatry and functional diagnostics with account of the specific age interval, as well as for prognosis.
