This document is the result of a research project called design and implementation of a prototype EEG Neurofeedback for control and stimulation of alpha wave, where, Neurofeedback is identifier as a therapeutic technique that was development by the Chicago University, to reduce conditions such as stress, insomnia, physical exhaustion, and hallucinogens dependence. In the design and implementati...

Psychological improvements in patients with substance use disorders have been reported after neurofeedback treatment. However, neurofeedback has not been commonly accepted as a treatment for substance dependence. This study was carried out to examine the effectiveness of this therapeutic method for opiate dependence disorder. The specific aim was to investigate whether treatment leads to any ch...

Introduction: Regarding the neurofeedback training process, previous studies indicate that 10%-50% of subjects cannot gain control over their brain activity even after repeated training sessions. This study is conducted to overcome this problem by investigating inter-individual differences in neurofeedback learning to propose some predictors for the trainability of subjects. Methods: Eight hea...

objective: the aim of present research is to investigate the effects of neurofeedback on cognitive function with emphasis on memory. method: this study is an experimental study. for this reason using a stratified sampling procedure sample of 30 subjects in 2 groups of experimental and placebo was selected. investigated subjects were assessed with the wechsler memory scale in two stages (pretest...

abstract aim and background: the aim of the present study was to evaluate the effect of neurofeedback training on reducing anxiety in people who attend a psychology clinic in isfahan. methods and materials: eighteen persons were randomly divided in control and test groups. the mean age of participants was 34.44. then, before and after the training they were evaluated with kattel anxiety test (1...

Executive Overview Recent advances in the field of neuroscience can significantly add to our understanding of leadership and its development. Specifically, we are interested in what neuroscience can tell us about inspirational leadership. Based on our findings, we discuss how future research in leadership can be combined with neuroscience, as well as potential neurofeedback interventions for th...

Dating back as far as 1957, the academic investigation of meditation and the Asian contemplative traditions have fascinated not only the likes of philosophers and religious scholars, but researchers in the fields of neuroscience, psychology, and medicine. While most of the contemplative traditions are comprised of spiritual practices that aim to bring the practitioner closer to self-actualizati...

Neuroscience as well as computer gaming have rapidly advanced in the last decades. Yet, the combination of both fields is still in its infancy. One example of an emerging alliance is neurofeedback, where participants are required to learn controlling their own brain activity. So far, this kind of training is mostly applied in therapeutic settings, for example improving symptoms in epilepsy, att...

The goal of neurofeedback training is to provide participants with relevant information on their ongoing brain processes in order to enable them to change these processes in a meaningful way. Under the assumption of an intrinsic brain-behavior link, neurofeedback can be a tool to guide a participant towards a desired behavioral state, such as a healthier state in the case of patients. Current r...
