This literature review describes the principles and rationale for dual cognitive-motor testing methodology and traces its development in national and international practice. It examines the regulation of human functional state during professional activity, including physiological and psychophysiological aspects of operator training and psychological self-regulation. Special attention is given to the system-situational approach as a theoretical framework for identifying latent impairments in functional state. This approach is of particular interest because it facilitates the prediction of an individual’s state dynamics in scenarios that approximate real conditions by analyzing the specifics of their cognitive regulation under simulated task loads. The primary focus is on the concept of dual-tasking — the simultaneous performance of motor and cognitive actions. The paradigm of ‘combined activity’ involves the concurrent execution of multiple, multi-modal tasks. Diagnosing the capacity for combined activity and the level of development of integrative processes requires specialized methodologies that model various situational demands, including those of professional environments. The review discusses methods of assessment and training under dual-task conditions and their application for improving cognitive and physical functions in diverse populations. The compiled information substantiates the relevance and scientific rationale for applying dual cognitive-motor testing methodologies.
