Congruency Effect During Attention Network Task for Electroencephalogram-based Alpha Neurofeedback Training
Neurofeedback Training (NFT) using Electroencephalogram (EEG) allows individuals to selfregulate the activity of their brain non-invasively. NFT improves an individual's attention levels but the effect of congruency (alternation and repetition) on brain activity is still unknown. This study aim...

| Summary: | Neurofeedback Training (NFT) using Electroencephalogram (EEG) allows individuals to selfregulate the activity of their brain non-invasively. NFT improves an individual's attention levels but the effect of congruency (alternation and repetition) on brain activity is still unknown. This study aimed to investigate the congruency effect of attention on 50 healthy participants (NFT Group: 25,
Control Group: 25) after long-term alpha NFT. We examined
changes in functional connectivity and band power within the
alpha band. During the Attention Network Task (ANT), each
participant's EEG was recorded with congruent and
incongruent stimuli in a pseudorandom order. A pre to postNFT was increased in alpha band peak power within the
temporal, parietal, and occipital regions, indicating the
effectiveness of NFT. Additionally, there was an increase in
task-related peak functional connectivity. However, the
congruency did not affect the strength of functional
connections between different brain regions. Stimuli
alternation had a greater effect on alpha band power and
connectivity modulation than stimuli repetition. |
