Hypothesis-generating for alpha asymmetry EEG biofeedback in adolescent depression; controlled trials needed before clinical adoption.
Previous case studies are presented which demonstrate the effectiveness of Alpha Asymmetry EEG biofeedback training in the treatment of depression. The results of these studies suggest that this form of biofeedback training may be an effective adjunct in the treatment of depression. To date, these case studies have been conducted on adults. This is the first attempt to replicate and extend the adultstudies using an adolescent client.
