Understanding how each variable was operationalized helps you evaluate whether results can be compared or generalized. It also helps you decide whether the measure actually reflects the concept you’re interested in.

At its core, ADHD is not about lacking attention—it's about struggling to control it.

Encephalopathy presents with polymorphic delta activity—delta waves that vary in shape and amplitude—over cortical areas.

Traveling waves in electroencephalography (EEG) represent coordinated patterns of electrical activity that move systematically across the cortex.

Diffuse slowing reflects a global disturbance of cortical–subcortical coupling and is therefore considered a biomarker of cerebral dysfunction rather than a discrete lesion.

EEG biomarkers offer incremental validity over behavioral observation alone.

IEDs are not incidental EEG findings, but markers of transient cortical dysfunction that disrupt cognition, emotion, and behavior.

Quantitative EEG (qEEG) normative databases can reveal the key parts of a network that need training and the required direction.

Dr. Davis wrote this frequently asked neurofeedback questions post as a resource for staff training and your clinic website.

Spindling excessive beta (SEB) represents a critical neurophysiological marker of cortical dysregulation identifiable on the EEG.

Breathing ensures healthy CO2 levels. The main functions of breathing are gas exchange and acid-base (pH) regulation.

I wrote this post to clear up confusion about frequency and amplitude, and give you a basic format for thinking about the EEG signal.

The IQCB guidelines formalize data collection, inspection, and analysis procedures to improve qEEG reliability and clinical acceptance.

The temporal and parietal lobes are the earliest affected, and the frontal and occipital lobes are the latest.

ADHD and ODD are distinct disorders with unique causes, symptoms, and treatment needs.

ADHD is associated with hypocoherence in major neural networks, particularly the DMN, SalN, and AttDN.

Language allows us to share our thoughts and ideas with others, rather than being essential for thinking.

Integrating biofeedback and neurofeedback represents a promising frontier in physiological self-regulation approaches.

The medical community has mistakenly viewed transient ischemic attacks as relatively harmless events.

Environmental and lifestyle factors accounted for 17% of disease mortality risk, while genetics contributed just 2%.
