- CZ Site Analysis
- Alpha Percentage Change (Eyes Open to Eyes Closed):
- Below 30% or Negative:
- Implications:
- Potential deficits in visual processing, memory retention, and short-term recall.
- Poor cortical engagement during state transitions, especially difficulty downregulating Alpha when eyes are closed.
- Behavioral Indicators:
- Difficulty retaining new information.
- Trouble following instructions or processing visual details.
- Recommendations:
- Neurofeedback Protocol:
- Enhance Alpha during Eyes Closed for memory consolidation.
- Optimize Alpha modulation to improve cognitive flexibility.
- Cross-reference: Compare with O1 Alpha transitions (Eyes Open to Eyes Closed) to assess visual-spatial and broader memory challenges.
- Alpha Increase > 25%:
- Implications:
- Possible cognitive fog or inefficiencies in cortical regulation.
- Overactivation in frontal and central lobe functionality, critical for executive functioning and mental clarity.
- Recommendations:
- Neurofeedback Protocol:
- Balance activity by enhancing Beta (15-18 Hz) and SMR (12-15 Hz).
- Reduce excessive Theta (4-7 Hz) or Delta (1-4 Hz).
- Conduct coherence training between frontal and central sites to improve connectivity and synchronization.
- Theta/Beta Ratio (> 2.2, Eyes Open):
- Implications:
- Reflects Cognitive Attention Deficit Disorder (CADD) or attention regulation challenges.
- Recommendations:
- Neurofeedback Protocol:
- Decrease Theta (4-7 Hz) and enhance Beta (15-18 Hz) at frontal/central brain sites.
- Train during Eyes-Open sessions to address attention regulation during active states.
- Up Training and Task Conditions:
- Theta/Beta > 2.2:
- If the ratio fails to drop during tasks, it reflects poor task engagement or attention-related inefficiencies.
- Theta/Beta > 3.0:
- Indicates ADHD-like symptoms such as hyperactivity, impulsivity, and difficulties sustaining focus.
- Recommendations:
- Train Theta/Beta under 2.2 for better task-related cognitive engagement.
- Use coherence training between frontal-central regions to strengthen connectivity and regulation.
- Total Amplitude (> 60):
- Implications:
- Indicates potential developmental delays, autistic spectrum behaviors, or significant cognitive deficits.
- Recommendations:
- Neurofeedback Protocol:
- Regulate total amplitude by inhibiting slow-wave activity (Delta, Theta).
- Enhance SMR and Beta for improved cognitive processing.
- O1 Site Analysis
- Alpha Increase (Eyes Closed):
- Below 50% or Negative:
- Implications:
- Indicates traumatic stress or unresolved psychological trauma.
- Recommendations:
- Neurofeedback Protocol:
- Enhance Alpha (8-12 Hz) and inhibit Theta (4-7 Hz) to improve emotional regulation and cognitive processing.
- Above 150%:
- Suggests enhanced artistic interest, introspection, or creativity.
- Recommendations:
- Use Alpha training to balance creativity while maintaining emotional and cognitive stability.
- Theta/Beta Ratio (< 1.8, Eyes Open):
- Implications:
- Reflects poor stress tolerance, racing thoughts, or heightened anxiety.
- Recommendations:
- Neurofeedback Protocol:
- Promote Theta stabilization and inhibit excessive Beta.
- Conduct Eyes Closed sessions for relaxation and anxiety reduction.
- Theta/Beta Ratio (Around or Below 1.5):
- Implications:
- Indicates sleep disturbances, such as difficulty transitioning to restful states.
- Recommendations:
- Balance Theta/Beta to optimize sleep transitions and patterns.
- Address contributing factors like stress, lifestyle, or sleep hygiene.
- F3/F4 Site Analysis
- Theta/Beta Ratio (> 2.2):
- Implications:
- Reflects cognitive deficiencies, emotional volatility, or poor impulse control.
- Recommendations:
- Neurofeedback Protocol:
- Inhibit Theta and enhance Alpha to foster calm alertness and emotional balance.
- Target both F3 and F4 for improved executive functioning.
- F3 vs. F4 Imbalances:
- F3 Dominance (Theta/Beta Ratio):
- Associated with depression or lack of motivation in adults.
- In children, linked to impulse control issues.
- F4 Dominance:
- Linked to emotional volatility and difficulty managing stress.
- Recommendations:
- Balance Theta/Beta between F3 and F4 to restore emotional and cognitive symmetry.
- FZ Site Analysis
- Delta Activity (> 9.0, Eyes Closed):
- Implications:
- Suggests cognitive deficits, including poor concentration, forgetfulness, or delayed neurological development.
- Recommendations:
- Neurofeedback Protocol:
- Inhibit Delta and enhance SMR for better cognitive clarity and self-regulation.
- HiBeta/Beta Ratio:
- > 0.55:
- Indicates obsessive-compulsive tendencies or perseverative behaviors.
- Recommendations:
- Inhibit HiBeta and enhance SMR for emotional and cognitive regulation.
- General Neurofeedback Recommendations
- For Attention Deficits:
- Reduce Theta and enhance Beta at frontal sites.
- Use coherence training between frontal and central regions for sustained attention.
- For Emotional Dysregulation:
- Focus on balancing Alpha and reducing Theta activity.
- Conduct sessions with Eyes Closed for recalibration.
- For Sleep Issues:
- Promote Theta stabilization and inhibit Beta to encourage restful states.
- Include lifestyle interventions like sleep hygiene and mindfulness practices.
- For Developmental Delays:
- Inhibit excessive Delta and Theta while strengthening SMR and Beta activity.
