Abstract

Background: Neurofeedback training is a promising area of research in cognitive performance. Although diverse patterns of Frequency in improving Memory performance have been studied, beta up-training and low alpha/high alpha ratio suppression have not yet been studied. Objective: The present study aimed at examining the effect of 2 Neurofeedback protocols “ beta up-training” and “ low alpha/ high alpha ratio suppression” on Memory performance. Methods: Thirty healthy participants, aged 20 to 40 years took part in this double-blind study. Participants performed ten 30-minute sessions of Neurofeedback training. They were randomly assigned into 3 groups: (A) beta up-training and theta downtraining, (B) low alpha/high alpha ratio suppression training, and (C) sham training. The Wechsler Memory scale (WMS-R) was performed before and after the training period to examine Memory performance. Data were analyzed using ANCOVA to compare Memory performance changes among the 3 study groups. Results: No significant differences were obtained among the participants in age, gender, marital status, and psychological condition. Treatment groups (including beta up-training and theta down-training and low alpha/high alpha ratio suppression training) showed superior improvement in Memory performance compared with the sham group. Conclusions: Neurofeedback training can improve Memory performance. Future studies should address the specificity of the Neurofeedback training effects, taking into account various populations of patients with cognitive impairment.
