Title

Improving cognitions: Insights from a decade of Fmθ neurofeedback research

Abstract

Executive functions (EFs) are crucial cognitive abilities that control behaviour and adaptability and are essential for achieving goals and coping with daily life. Impairments in EFs significantly affect quality of life, highlighting the need for effective cognitive training approaches. Neurofeedback (NF) via a brain-computer interface (BCI) is a promising technique that specifically targets the neural basis of cognition. It relies on learning and neuroplasticity mechanisms and offers the potential for lasting cognitive improvements. This presentation will focus on frontal-midline theta (Fmθ)-NF, a protocol that relies on robust neuroscientific construct validity and is closely linked to EFs. The presentation will include: i) an update on advances in the field of NF, ii) neuroscientific findings on EFs, iii) a summary of current knowledge on Fmθ-NF research including a mega-analysis, and iv) new trends in Fmθ-NF such as the integration of psychedelics and tangible learning companions for the improvement of the protocol. The discussion will extend to the impact of NF on peak performance and clinical applications.
