Area of Science:

  • Neuroscience
  • Cognitive Psychology
  • Psychiatric Research

Background:

  • Functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) enables real-time brain activity feedback.
  • Neurofeedback is used for psychiatric disorders, often linked to abnormal brain networks.
  • Connectivity neurofeedback directly modulates brain networks, offering a novel therapeutic approach.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To test if connectivity neurofeedback can induce specific changes in functional connectivity.
  • To examine if cognitive performance changes differentially based on the direction of connectivity modulation.

Main Methods:

  • Targeted connectivity neurofeedback between the left primary motor cortex and left lateral parietal cortex.
  • Two groups: one aimed to increase connectivity, the other to decrease it.
  • Assessed changes in functional connectivity and cognitive performance pre- and post-training.

Main Results:

  • Participants successfully achieved the targeted direction of change in functional connectivity.
  • Significant and differential changes in cognitive performance were observed between the two groups post-training.

Conclusions:

  • Connectivity neurofeedback effectively induces directed changes in brain network functional connectivity.
  • This technique can also lead to specific, direction-dependent alterations in cognitive performance.
  • Connectivity neurofeedback shows promise as a therapeutic intervention for psychiatric disorders.
