Enhancing learning in a perceptual-cognitive training paradigm using EEG-neurofeedback

Abstract This paper provides the framework and supporting evidence for a highly efficient closed-loop paradigm that modifies a classic learning scenario using real-time brain activity in order to improve learning performance in a perceptual-cognitive training paradigm known as 3-dimensional multiple...
