(1) Background: Neurofeedback training (NFT) has emerged as a promising approach for enhancing cognitive functions and reducing anxiety, yet its specific impact on university student populations requires further investigation. This study aims to examine the effects of NFT working memory improvement anxiety reduction within this demographic. (2) Methods: A total forty healthy volunteers were randomized into two groups: an experimental group that received control group. The protocol was administered using 14-channel Emotiv Epoc X headset (EMOTIV, Inc., San Francisco, CA 94102, USA) BrainViz software version Brain Visualizer 1.1 USA), focusing alpha frequency band target improvements in reductions anxiety. Assessment tools, including Corsi Block Memory Span tests State-Trait Anxiety Inventory-2 (STAI-2) applied pre- post-intervention. (3) Results: findings indicated increase wave amplitude from second day NFT, with statistically significant differences observed days 2 (p < 0.05) 8 0.01). Contrary expectations based previous literature, did not observe concurrent positive memory. Nonetheless, state levels recorded 0.001), corroborating NFT’s potential management. (4) Conclusions: While these results suggest some technique neural efficiency, variability across different highlights need investigation fully ascertain effectiveness. confirms beneficial among students, underscoring value psychological performance enhancement. Despite lack memory, highlight continued exploration applications settings, emphasizing utility educational therapeutic contexts.

Abstract Lack of attention is a chronic behavior in deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), autism spectrum (ASD), and other disorders that harm academic social performance. ADHD whose typical symptoms include inattention, hyperactivity, impulsivity. They have major impact on the affected person’s function development. The electroencephalogram (EEG) device diagnostic tool, whereas quantitative EEG (QEEG) therapeutic tool for most mental disorders. QEEG applies neurofeedback method treatment. Neurofeedback technique training brain functions an alternative to traditional oral treatment inattention due its numerous side effects. proposed software can upgrade devices hospitals clinics into QEEGs capable neurofeedback. upgrading tools stages are introduced this study. cost 25 times less than purchase price device. (Open BCI) has been upgraded with MATLAB as system, integrating variety feature extraction methods detection such fractal dimension (FD), wavelet transform (WT), multi-resolution techniques (MR), empirical mode decomposition (EMD) which signified notable progress field. Furthermore, implemented easily customizable any forthcoming superior may arise. Earlier research distinguished differences between states relaxation concentration using simple fixed threshold. In paper, short utilized calculate adaptive thresholds optimize individual Different thresholding were employed EMD_Dt distinguish focused unfocused epochs. threshold results more accurate reaching benchmark 99.82%, opposed method, reaches accuracy 97.73%. findings assessed through pilot study involving 3483 epochs collected across 24 sessions from male female children aged 5 16. was evaluated be Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Realistic, Timed (SMART) effect size 0.85528336, significant.

Chronic pain (CP), affecting approximately 20 % of adults globally, imposes a profound burden on individuals and healthcare systems. This condition, characterized by persistent pain, muscle stiffness, emotional distress, often results in complex interplay physical psychological factors that exacerbate symptoms hinder recovery. Biofeedback (BFB), non-invasive intervention, offers promising rehabilitation strategy enabling to monitor self-regulate physiological responses, such as tension, heart rate, skin temperature. Through this process, BFB disrupts the vicious cycle stress, fostering relaxation, reducing strain, alleviating distress. systematic review aimed examine mechanisms underlying BFB's therapeutic effects CP rehabilitation, specifically its ability enhance self-regulation promote relaxation improve control. Furthermore, it evaluate impact key outcomes, including severity, functional capabilities, quality life, with goal guiding integration into contemporary practices. Following PRISMA guidelines, search was conducted PubMed, Web Science, Embase (2014-2024) identify studies for CP. Inclusion criteria included original research involving primary or secondary intervention CP, outcomes related management rehabilitation. is registered Open OSF (X5HPB). has shown consistent efficacy complementary therapy management, offering significant reductions intensity enhancements life across diverse conditions. Mechanistically, facilitates improved training patients modulate tension rate variability, leading better control stress reduction. shows promise supplementary treatment different disorders. The evidence examined effective improving how perceived, increasing results, boosting overall among variety patient groups.

Objectives: Neurofeedback (NF) based on brain-computer interface (BCI) is an important direction in adjunctive interventions for post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). However, existing research lacks comprehensive methodologies and experimental designs. There are concerns the field regarding effectiveness mechanistic interpretability of NF, prompting this study to conduct a systematic analysis primary NF techniques outcomes PTSD modulation. The aims explore reasons behind these propose directions addressing them. Methods: A search conducted Web Science database up December 1, 2023, yielded 111 English articles, which 80 were excluded predetermined criteria irrelevant study. remaining 31 original studies included literature review. checklist was developed assess robustness credibility studies. Subsequently, classified into electroencephalogram-based (EEG-NF) functional magnetic resonance imaging-based (fMRI-NF) BCI type. Data target brain regions, signals, modulation protocols, control group types, assessment methods, data processing strategies, reported extracted synthesized. Consensus theories from future improvements related distilled. Results: Analysis all revealed that average sample size patients EEG fMRI 17.4 (SD 7.13) 14.6 6.37), respectively. Due neurofeedback training protocol constraints, 93% EEG-NF 87.5% fMRI-NF used traditional statistical with minimal utilization basic machine learning (ML) methods no utilizing deep (DL) methods. Apart approximately 25% supporting exploratory psychoregulatory lacked explicit guidance. Only 13% evaluated involving signal classification, decoding during process, lacking process monitoring means. Conclusion: In summary, holds promise as intervention technique PTSD, potentially aiding symptom alleviation patients. necessary evaluation mechanisms PTSD-NF, clarity guidance, development ML/DL suitable PTSD-NF small sizes. To address challenges, it crucial adopt more rigorous should focus integration advanced enhance precision interventions. Impact Statement implications limited application (NFT) (PTSD) research, where significant portion approaches, foundational conclusions lack consensus. notable absence retrospective analyses NFT PTSD. This provides discussion offering valuable insights findings hold significance researchers, clinicians, practitioners field, providing foundation informed, evidence-based treatment.
