BEHAVIORAL

Simple attention controlled task

The controlled group of this project also received an intervention which included an audiobook. While wearing the headband, the controlled participants muted their neurofeedback sounds and only focused on an audiobook while remaining relaxed. A summary of their brain states was given to them when completing their practice every day.
