“…Subsequent studies in children showed that neurofeedback-mediated decreases in low-frequency amplitudes were associated with improvements in ADHD symptoms [98][99][100] . Some recent RCTs have provided evidence that the clinical effect size of neurofeedback can be superior to computerized attention training 101,102 or match the one of standard pharmacotherapy 103,104 . Importantly, improvements in the neurofeedback group at 6-month follow-up remained larger than those in the computerized attention group and were comparable to the effects at the end of the training 64 .…”

“…Several randomized controlled trial studies have since compared neurofeedback to medication alone or in combination (see Table 2). Although one of them 54 found neurofeedback effects inferior to medication effects, the other 2 studies 55,56 found no differences between medication and neurofeedback effects, and one study 55 reported that neurofeedback or medication alone was as effective as the combination.…”

KEYWORDS ADHD Treatment Neurofeedback Slow cortical potentials Frequency bands Reward KEY POINTSAmong alternative treatment approaches for attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), neurofeedback has gained empirical support in recent years.Via neurofeedback, children with ADHD are trained to regulate their neurophysiologic profile or to bring it closer to that of nonaffected children; learning of self-regulation is thus a key mechanism.According to recent meta-analytic evidence, neurofeedback leads to significant decreases of ADHD core symptoms; however, if only probably blinded ratings are applied, these effects were reduced to a statistical trend. The evidence remains inconclusive because subsequent studies could demonstrate neither learning of self-regulation nor significant effects for the best blinded assessments.There is a strong need for more evidence from well-blinded, methodologically sound, and sensitive trials demonstrating also learning of self-regulation, before neurofeedback can be assigned the highest level of evidence as a front-line treatment of ADHD.

“…According to the results of a few clinical studies that have been conducted over the last www.kan.or.kr Ryoo, ManHee · Son, ChongNak 30 years, such neurofeedback is effective at reducing symptoms associated with ADHD that included hyperactivity, impulsivity, and attention [12]. Neurofeedback training in korean and elsewhere has shown effects similar to or better than pharmacotherapy in treating children with ADHD [8,13,14].…”
