The purpose of this research was to confirm that prefrontal neurofeedback training has an impact on adolescents. The objective of this study was to prove its scientific effect through experimentation. The effect of the training was measured by the difference in neuro?frequencies before and after the training. For this research, an experimental group and a control group, each with 22 students in J High School located in the city of S participated in this study. From May to July 2019, the training was conducted three times a week and for 30 minutes per session. The neuro?frequency data collected were analyzed through the methods of F.F.T. The resulting changes from the neurofeedback training for each group were analyzed by T-Tests. The result of the study is as follows; Neurofeedback training has had a positive effect on adolescent attention and sleep. In conclusion, the environmental and educational factors also play an important role. As the interaction of the latter two factors yield an individual's unique brain structure and functionality, the impact of the neurofeedback training is important on adolescents. The derivation of the above results by utilizing scientific and objective methods reemphasizes the importance of this study.

This study was to examine the effectiveness of neurofeedback training by observing the pre and post brainwave measurement results of about 50 (experimental group 25. comparative group 25) subjects who have shown attention and school achievement motivation. The study took place at neuro-training center B, in between the months of Jun. 2010 and Dec. 2010. The objective of this study was to prove its scientific effect through experimentation. As the brainwaves are adjusted by time series linear analysis. The result confirmed the differences of both attention quotient, brain quotient and school achievement. The result of the study suggest neurofeedback technique's possibility in positively affecting the subjects' attention and school achievement motivation.

The purpose of this study was to verify the effect of Neurofeedback training on adolescence groups that are different in Age. The experiment was carried out with 90 students who living in Kyonggi-do. From Nov. 2009 to Mar. 2010, each were under training about 20-25 times, 2-3 times a week, during 20 to 50 minutes, was conducted by limiting training. Statistical data collected were processed with the SPSS 12.0. For the purposes of t-test showed that differences in the effects of age. The result, the effects of Neurofeedback training on age difference groups were reflected characteristics of brain's development in adolescence. The most effective showed in middle school students. Also, Significant effects of Neuofeedback training that were confirmed in attention quotient, Activation quotient, Stress resistence quotient.

The aim of this study is to analyze the effectiveness of QEEG-based neurofeedback clinical tests on patients diagnosed with anxiety disorder. Researchers tested six patients with anxiety disorder using 32-channel QEEG(Quantitative electroencephalograpy) and neurofeedback training equipment. The study measured anxiety levels of patients using QEEG and BAI physiological psychology tests. Test results found hyperactive beta waves present in all six patients' temporal lobe. The intensity of the wave of the right hemisphere temporal lobe T4(M=31.07) was the higher than that of the left hemisphere temporal lobe 3(M=29.11). Following Neurofeedback training, the beta wave of the right hemisphere lobe was reduced significantly in all patients. The average anxiety level decreased from 23.57 to 12.14 after the neurofeedback training. In addition, among the two patients who were taking medication, one patient reduced his dosage while the other patient discontinued taking medication. This result implies that the QEEG neurofeedback training technique can be effectively applied to patients with anxiety disorder.

Background: This report determines the effects of a neurofeedback program on patients with breast cancer through a study of psychogenic factors(distress, depression, anxiety). Design: Randomized controlled trial. Methods: The study selected 28 patients with breast cancer and divided them into two groups: 14 subjects in the neurofeedback program group and 14 subjects in the exercise intervention program group. Both groups conducted one-and-hour training per session five times a week for a total of five weeks. The experimental group performed neurofeedback, and the control group performed a exercise intervention. The distress was measured using the distress management Test. Beck's Depression Inventory was used to measure depression. Beck's Anxiety Inventory was used to measure Anxiety Results: Both the experimental and control groups showed significant differences in distress, depression, and anxiety after the intervention (p<0.05) in the within-group comparisons. It was found that the experimental group showed more significant differences in distress, depression, and anxiety than the control group (p<0.05) when the two groups were compared. Conclusion: The results obtained in this study show that the neurofeedback program had a positive effect on distress, depression, and anxiety of life in patients with breast cancer. The study thereby proposes that the neurofeedback program should be applied as an intervention method for clinical use on patients with breast cancer.

The purpose of this study is to determine an effective training method to improve sequela, since traumatic brain injury sequela is a major factor in determining the quality of life. Neurofeedback training was conducted for an adolescent who had experienced traumatic brain injury during his childhood and who had difficulty in cognitive learning and emotional aspects. The assessment of an adolescent was conducted using K-WAIS-IV intelligence test and QEEG brain wave analysis. In the neurofeedback training, T3 alpha wave compensation and T4 alpha wave inhibition training were performed 36 times for 30 minutes three times a week. In addition to the neurofeedback training, respiratory meditation was also made available to the adolescent. As a result, the adolescent showed a stable condition as indicated by taking a good sleep, reducing test anxiety, and satisfaction with final exam results. This study revealed the possibility for hidden physical and psychological problems arising due to childhood brain trauma. It has also recently been discovered that a more diverse set of tools can be found. In addition, these childhood traumatic brain injuries can be improved through brain training and meditation. The study finding is meaningful for its suggestion of a fusion method for developing mind and body therapy in terms of brain science.

Human can learn how to shape their brain electrical activity in a desired direction through continuous feedback of the electroencephalogram (EEG), and this technique is known as Neurofeedback (or EEG biofeedback), which has been used since the late 1960s in clinical applications. In this study, a portable wireless EEG (named wEEG) has been designed and implemented, which consists of a mobile station (a wireless two-channel EEG acquisition device) and a base station (a bridge between mobile station and computer). Moreover, a SensoriMotor Rhythm (SMR) training system was also implemented with the wEEG for enhancing attention with virtual environment. Experiment results based on 16 volunteers' (8 females and 8 males, average age is $27{\pm}4$) were reported in this paper. The results show that the SMR ratio of 87.5% subjects increased about 0.7% in training status than that in the stable status. With the proposed system, many training protocol scan be designed easily and can be done at home in our daily life conveniently. Additionally, the proposed system will be useful for disabled and aged people.

This Convergence study aimed to investigate the effects of changing brainwave neurofeedback training on life stress and depression in female college students. Twenty-six of the subjects were selected into the experimental group and the control group respectively intervention for 8 weeks, the following results were obtained. First, experimental group and control group presented statistical significant difference before and after intervention on life stress, and life stress in experimental group was statistical significantly decreased than control group. Second, experimental group and control group presented statistical significant difference before and after intervention on depression, and depression in experimental group was statistically significantly decreased than control group. The results obtained from this study expect us that applying the neurofeedback training for the decrease of life stress and depression, has a positive effect.
