If you are interested in reviewing some professional research articles regarding Neurofeedback below are some links to some articles as well as some links to other sites that are helpful for researching Neurofeedback.
A good starting point is to read: What is Neurofeedback?
A recent Position Paper by the ISNR published in the Journal of Neurotherapy (July, 2010) : “provides the current evidence supporting the use of neurofeedback in the treatment of ADHD and recommendations on the implementation of neurofeedback in clinical practice.” (p. 66) Read Position Paper
- A very COMPREHENSIVE BIBLIOGRAPHY which has links to research about many disorders is available through the International Society for Neurofeedback and Research.
Some preferred Neurofeedback related websites:
~International Society for Neurofeedback and Research (ISNR)
~Biofeedback Certification International Alliance (BCIA)
~The Association for Applied Psychophysiology and Biofeedback (AAPB)
- A Meta-Analysis of The Efficacy of Neurofeedback in ADHD in the Journal of Clinical EEG and Neuroscience (July 2009) noted:
“… we conclude that neurofeedback treatment for ADHD can be considered “Efficacious and Specific (level 5) with a high effect size for inattention and impulsivity and a medium effect size for hyperactivity.” Read Clinical Research and Neuroscience.
