Annotation:  The results of the study of gender features of the structural organization of attention in preschool children in the article are presented. Children of preschool age female, in contrast to male, in the performance of tasks to determine the concentration of attention showed a higher speed of work. The parameters of accu-racy and pace of tasks for volume, distribution and attention switching are approximately the same for preschool children both female and male. The interrelationships of the speed parameters of the parameters of the attention properties in preschool children of the female sex, in contrast to the male one, are re-vealed. That is, the girls in the performance of tasks are focused on speed, and boys are focused on for accuracy. The positive correlation between the accuracy of the tasks performed in the samples to deter-mine the amount of attention and its switching in preschool children of the female is weakly expressed, and in the male they correspond to moderate severity. By the parameter of accuracy of performance of tasks of attention structure in pre-school children both female and male are identical. At the same time, the structural organization of attention to the pace parameter in preschool children in the female, in contrast to the male, is sufficiently integrated.
