Short-term Beneficial Effects of 12 Sessions of Neurofeedback on Avoidant Personality Accentuation in the Treatment of Alcohol Use Disorder

Abstract: This study evaluated the effects of alpha/theta neurofeedback on Clinical Personality Accentuations in individuals with alcohol use disorder. Twenty-five males were investigated using a pre-test/post-test design with a waiting-list control group. Participants were randomly assigned either to an experimental group (n = 13) receiving 12 sessions of neurofeedback twice a week as a treatment adjunct over a period of 6 weeks, or to a control group (n = 12) receiving treatment as usual. The Inventory of Clinical Per… Show more

“…Neurofeedback (NFB) has been demonstrated to be potentially useful for decreasing anxiety (Michael et al, 2005; Dias and van Deusen, 2011; Cheon et al, 2015) and mitigating manifestations of alcohol use disorder (Dalkner et al, 2017), tinnitus (Hartmann et al, 2011; Weisz et al, 2011), and substance abuse (Unterrainer et al, 2013). Other investigations provided evidence that NFB enhances attention (Egner and Gruzelier, 2004; Wang and Hsieh, 2013), mood (Raymond et al, 2005), memory (Escolano et al, 2011), musical performance (Egner and Gruzelier, 2003), and surgical technique (Ros et al, 2009).…”

“…Excessive physical and psychological stress and reaction states are defined as hyperarousal, which can be measured by recording brain waves [5e7]. Studies have reported that high beta waves, indicating anxiety and excitement state, are enhanced, and alpha waves, indicating a calm state, are decreased during hyperarousal [5]. In addition, enhanced high beta waves are clinically important because they are associated with the severity and relapse of AUD [5e8].…”

“…Therefore, in this study, NFT for inpatients with AUD was performed in combination with other intervention programs in hospital according to recommend of previous study [5]. The range of NFT was determined based on the results of individual quantitative electroencephalography (QEEG) considering that different brain hyperarousal state in AUD.…”

“…Beta wave frequency alone is 12-25 Hz, a frequency that is good to do activities that require high concentration. While alpha waves around 8-12 Hz is good to use for learning (Dalkner et al, 2017;Vossen, Gross, & Thut, 2015).…”
