Summary

This study examined the effects of sequential prefrontal alpha-theta neurofeedback training on abstinence self-efficacy, mindfulness, and brain electroencephalography (EEG) activity in adults with Alcohol Use Disorder (AUD). Participants in the experimental group received 24 sessions of neurofeedback over 8 weeks (3 sessions per week, 30 minutes per session), while a control group received no intervention. EEG and self-report measures were assessed at baseline and post-intervention.

BEHAVIORAL

Sequential Prefrontal Alpha-Theta Neurofeedback Training

Operant conditioning-based neurofeedback: 5 min alpha (8-12 Hz) + 25 min theta (4-7 Hz) at prefrontal sites Fp1/Fp2 per session; 24 sessions over 8 weeks supervised by a certified practitioner. Audio feedback (ocean waves for alpha, birdsong for theta) delivered via Power Nap device (Neuro21, Korea) while participants remained eyes-closed and seated.
