Установлено наличие у ЭМ лимона анксиолитического и антидепрессивного действия, отмечено улучшение самооценки настроения и расслабленности, ускорение работы с массивами символов. Показано, что результат действия ЭМ лимона на психоэмоциональное состояние и умственную работоспособность человека зависит от длительности воздействия: положительное влияние проявляется преимущественно при длительном (30-40 минут) воздействии.</p></abstract><trans-abstract xml:lang="en"><p>The effect of lemon essential oil (EO) (Citrus limon L.) on elderly people when they inhale air containing vapors of lemon EO at a concentration of 1 mg/m3 has been studied. It was found that lemon EO has anxiolytic and antidepressant effects, improved self-esteem, mood and relaxation, and accelerated work with arrays of symbols. It is shown that the effect of lemon EO on a person's psychoemotional state and mental performance depends on the duration of exposure: the positive effect is manifested mainly with prolonged (30-40 minutes) exposure.</p></trans-abstract><kwd-group xml:lang="ru"><kwd>эфирное масло лимона</kwd><kwd>люди пожилого возраста</kwd><kwd>психоэмоциональное состояние</kwd><kwd>умственная работоспособность</kwd></kwd-group><kwd-group xml:lang="en"><kwd>lemon essential oil</kwd><kwd>elderly people</kwd><kwd>psychoemotional state</kwd><kwd>mental performance</kwd></kwd-group></article-meta></front><back><ref-list><title>References</title><ref id="cit1"><label>1</label><citation-alternatives><mixed-citation xml:lang="ru">Михайлова Н.М.
