NEUROFEEDBACK on Event-Related Potential (ERP)

"Children in group A will receive BCI-based training implemented through original P300-based controlled games.~They will attend 30 1-hour long training sessions at a pace of 2 sessions per week.~Each session includes: installation of the child, the EEG system and an eye-tracking system, a 5-minutes relaxation phase, a short EEG recording at rest, a brief reminder of the instructions, 30 minutes of training by playing video games and finally a time for the child to wash her/his hair.~Moreover, 4 neuropsychological sessions will complement the 30 training sessions. During these sessions neuropsychological tests and quality of life questionnaires will be answered."

"Children in group B will receive a training that is not based on brain activity, but in a blind fashion. They will attend 30 1-hour long training sessions at a pace of 2 sessions per week.~Each session includes: installation of the child, setting up the EEG and eye-tracking systems, a 5-minutes relaxation phase, short EEG recording at rest, a brief reminder of the instructions, 30 minutes of video game based training and finally a time for the child to wash her/his hair.~Besides, 4 neuropsychological sessions will complement the 30 training sessions. During these sessions neuropsychological tests and quality of life questionnaires will be performed."

The children included in this group will not receive any training. They only take part to the 4 neuropsychological sessions. Like others, they will attend 1 neuropsychological session every two months over six months.
