That is also a fair description of what neurofeedback does across 20 or 40 sessions. Set client expectations accordingly, and describe gains as graded and dose-dependent rather than as a repair.

From diagnosing epilepsy to powering brain-computer interfaces, the EEG has shaped more than a century of neuroscience and clinical medicine. The central questions are what we are actually measuring and how we make sense of the signal.

Methamphetamine cues directly undermine response inhibition by activating brain networks that compete with self-control.

Neurofeedback combined with reading interventions likely merits a rating of efficacious.

Neurofeedback is an effective treatment for various conditions, such as ADHD, anxiety, depression, and epilepsy. Neurofeedback can also...
