Abstract Neurofeedback has begun to attract the attention and scrutiny of scientific medical mainstream. Here, neurofeedback researchers present a consensus-derived checklist that aims improve reporting experimental design standards in field.
Abstract Neurofeedback is increasingly recognized as an intervention to treat core symptoms of attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). Despite the large number studies having been carried out evaluate its effectiveness, it widely elusive what neuronal mechanisms related ADHD are modulated by neurofeedback. 19 children with undergoing 8 weeks theta/beta neurofeedback and 17 waiting list controls performed a Go/Nogo task in pre-post design. We used neurophysiological measures...
Abstract: Introduction: Mental symptoms and disorders in competitive sports can reduce performance may occur as sport-specific non-specific disorders. Unrecognized or inadequately treated mental health athletes have serious consequences. Methods: A review of the medical literature identified relevant publications on topics psychiatry athletes. corresponding concept was developed this context. Results: The promotion is not yet an integral part care structures sports. Competitive success...
We created a set of resources to enable research based on openly-available diffusion MRI (dMRI) data from the Healthy Brain Network (HBN) study. First, we curated HBN dMRI (N = 2747) into Imaging Data Structure and preprocessed it according best-practices, including denoising correcting for motion effects, susceptibility-related distortions, eddy currents. Preprocessed, analysis-ready was made openly available. quality plays key role in analysis dMRI. To optimize QC scale this large dataset,...
Abstract The right temporoparietal junction (rTPJ) is a core hub in neural networks associated with reorienting of attention and social cognition. However, it remains unknown whether participants can learn to actively modulate their rTPJ activity via neurofeedback. Here, we explored the feasibility functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS)-based neurofeedback modulating its effect on functions such as visual perspective taking. In bidirectional regulation control group design, 50 healthy...
Neurofeedback allows individuals to monitor and self-regulate their brain activity, potentially improving human function. Beyond the traditional electrophysiological approach using primarily electroencephalography, haemodynamics measured with functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) more recently, near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS) have been used (haemodynamic-based neurofeedback), particularly improve spatial specificity of neurofeedback. Over recent years, especially fNIRS has...
The current review provides an overview of various techniques for manipulating interpersonal neural synchrony. It presents a 'second-person' neuroscience approach as potential clinical tool treating certain mental disorders characterized by social interaction challenges, including Autism Spectrum Disorder, Attachment and Social Anxiety Disorder.
Abstract Real-time fMRI neurofeedback is an increasingly popular neuroimaging technique that allows individual to gain control over his/her own brain signals, which can lead improvements in behavior healthy participants as well of clinical symptoms patient populations. However, a considerably large ratio undergoing training do not learn their signals and, consequently, benefit from interventions, limits efficacy interventions. As success varies between studies and participants, it important...
Abstract Humans synchronize with one another to foster successful interactions. Here, we use a multimodal data fusion approach the aim of elucidating neurobiological mechanisms by which interpersonal neural synchronization (INS) occurs. Our meta-analysis 22 functional magnetic resonance imaging and 69 near-infrared spectroscopy hyperscanning experiments (740 3,721 subjects) revealed robust brain-regional correlates INS in right temporoparietal junction left ventral prefrontal cortex....
Mit dem Digitale-Versorgung-Gesetz hat Deutschland einen entscheidenden Schritt zur Förderung qualitativ hochwertiger, evidenzbasierter digitaler Gesundheitsanwendungen (DiGAs) unternommen. Zugleich besteht in weiten Teilen Deutschlands eine deutliche Versorgungslücke im Bereich psychischer Störungen, von der Kinder und Jugendliche, insbesondere infolge Corona-Pandemie, besonders stark betroffen sind. DiGAs bieten als niedrigschwellige, orts- zeitunabhängige therapeutische Angebote...
Have you ever thought that light could tell something about your brain? Light is a powerful tool helps brain researchers understand the brain. Our eyes can only see <1% of total around us. Some red, so-called near-infrared light. This type travel through head and top layers brain, thereby gives important information activity. The technique uses has long name: functional spectroscopy (fNIRS). In this article, we will show what fNIRS machine looks like it to take part in experiment. We...
