Brain mechanisms of subjective (internal) rhythmisation were examined in two experimental cases. One of the tasks was to combine acoustic rhythmic clicks as pairs; another task was to combine the same monotone clicks as triples. With the method of factorial analysis some types of specific variation of EVP form on the clicks which took different place in patterns were figured out. Analysis of dynamics of brain structures activity revealed some types of functional brain architectonics while subjects were performing a task of combining clicks. Specific cerebellum activation took place both in rhythm perception and in subject’s activity of integration of cognitive processes.

The article presents the results of an experimental research of color distinguishing by city dwellers of China and a midland of Russia. Comparison of color vision was made under the basic chromatic characteristics (hue and saturation) in terms of spherical model of color distinguishing. The cross-cultural differences are not revealed. That is for about threshold light stimulus, the color distinguishing is carried out in visual system of the people belonging to different cultures, absolutely equally, both for radiation, and for light reflected from a surface. Hence, the spherical model of color vision is adequate representation of color distinguishing without dependence from a cultural habitat of subjects.
