BACKGROUND We report a randomized controlled clinical trial of neurofeedback therapy intervention for ADHD/ADD in adults. We focus on internal mechanics of neurofeedback learning, to elucidate the primary role of cortical self-regulation in neurofeedback. We report initial results; more extensive analysis will follow. METHODS Trial has two phases: intervention and follow-up. The intervention ...

The case of “Lynn” (Stewart, Dadson, & Fallding, 2011) involved theoretical integration with regard to structural dissociation, mentalizing, and disorganized and unresolved attachment. Although the article explored integrative theoretical considerations with case examples, treatment modalities within sessions were not the central focus. Providing a follow-up to the case, this article describes ...

In electroencephalography (EEG) neurofeedback protocols, trainees receive feedback about the spectral power of the target brain wave oscillation and are tasked to increase or decrease this feedback signal compared to a predetermined threshold. In a recent computational analysis of a neurofeedback protocol it was shown that the placement of the threshold has a major impact on the learning rate a...

Seventy-one patients with recurrent migraine headaches, aged 17-62, from one neurological practice, completed a quantitative electroencephalogram (QEEG) procedure. All QEEG results indicated an excess of high-frequency beta activity (21-30 Hz) in 1-4 cortical areas. Forty-six of the 71 patients selected neurofeedback training while the remaining 25 chose to continue on drug therapy. Neurofeedba...

[Purpose] The purpose of the present study was to examine the effects of neurofeedback training on electroencephalogram changes in the cervical spine in adults with forward head posture through x-ray. [Subjects and Methods] The subjects of the study were 40 college students with forward head posture, randomly divided into a neurofeedback training group (NFTG, n=20) and a control group (CG, n=20...

Recent advances in neurofeedback based on real-time functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) allow for learning to control spatially localized brain activity in the range of millimeters across the entire brain. Real-time fMRI neurofeedback studies have demonstrated the feasibility of self-regulating activation in specific areas that are involved in a variety of functions, such as perception...
