Neurofeedback training content for treatment of stress
Abstract
Stress is one of the major problems in society and is being treated using medicine and neurofeedback therapy. Neurofeedback therapy is usually successful. The contents as stimuli for neurofeedback training are not available for stress and anxiety. This paper focuses on giving a comprehensive and critical summary of available contents for neurofeedback training. It also establishes a need for the development of content as a stimulus for neurofeedback which trains the subject on how to control his brain activity, especially in stress condition. The developed content consists of audio and game. The game is used to reduce the power of high-beta brain activity and the audio is used to enhance the amplitude of alpha brainwaves in left-prefrontal lobe. The experimental results show significant improvement in reducing stress level. The outcome is a proposed content for neurofeedback training to reduce stress, and it also improves the neurofeedback training efficacy.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
