| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Neurofeedback Training (NFT) is a training to regulate brain activities with visual or sound feedback of their own brain activities to subjects. This study extends the conventional NFT to bilateral NFT between two where the brain waves are communicated directly and used as the feedback. In the experiments, the powers of alpha waves of EEG are displayed as a visual feedback. Our results show that alpha power of subjects’ EEG can be enhanced in the bilateral NFT and that the subjects who can successfully enhance the alpha power is also able to regulate the alpha in the conventional individual NFT.
