Short and long-term effects of sham-controlled prefrontal EEG-neurofeedback training in healthy subjects.

Objective: In this study we evaluated long-term effects of frontal beta EEG-neurofeedback training (E-NFT) on healthy subjects. We hypothesized that E-NFT can change frontal beta activity in the long-term and that changes in frontal beta EEG activity are accompanied by altered cognitive performance.

Methods: 25 healthy subjects were included and randomly assigned to active or sham E-NFT.
