Neurofeedback and Computerized Cognitive Training in Different Settings for Children and Adolescents With ADHD

In neurofeedback training, EEG-activity is visualized and fed back to the participant online on a computer screen. Successful regulation is rewarded by bonus points. The aim is to gain control over one's brain activity and to be able to switch to or to maintain a more wakeful, alert or focussed state.

In computerized cognitive training, impaired neuropsychological functions, such as inhibition, working memory, distractibility, are directly trained by adaptive computerized software programs. We use training programs from a scientifically based training system for patients presenting problems with sustained, focussed or selective attention, working memory, inhibition, processing speed. Good performance / improvements are rewarded with bonus points.
