Electroencephalography Neurofeedback Training with Focus on the State of Attention: An Investigation Using Source Localization and Effective Connectivity.

Identifying brain activity and flow direction can help in monitoring the effectiveness of neurofeedback tasks that aim to treat cognitive deficits. The goal of this study was to compare the neuronal electrical activity of the cortex between individuals from two groups-low and high difficulty-based on a spatial analysis of electroencephalography (EEG) acquired through neurofeedback sessions. These sessions require the subjects to maintain their state of attention when executing a task.
