Brain training for young people at high risk for psychosis
Part of Brain & nervous system, Mental health clinical trials.
This study tests whether a brain-training technique called neurofeedback can help reduce symptoms in young people at high risk for psychosis. It compares brain activity feedback to usual care, aiming to improve cognitive function and reduce the chance of developing psychosis.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must be between 12 and 30 years old.
- You need to be fluent in English, either as your first language or learned before age 6.
- You must meet specific criteria for being at clinical high risk for psychosis (or be a healthy volunteer matched to such a person).
- You cannot have a current or past diagnosis of a psychotic disorder, like schizophrenia.
- You cannot have an IQ below 70 or certain medical conditions that affect the brain.
- You must be able to give informed consent to participate.

This study uses real-time brain scans to let healthy adults see and train their own brain activity. It aims to understand how the brain works and may help develop new ways to improve brain function.
This research study looks at how the brain changes in young people who are at high risk for developing psychosis. It aims to find better ways to predict and prevent psychosis by using brain imaging and thinking tests.
This study tests a brain-training method called neurofeedback that may help improve thinking and reduce symptoms in people with schizophrenia. You'll get feedback on your brain activity while doing tasks, and the researchers hope it will help your brain work better.
This study tests if a brain training technique called neurofeedback can help reduce the return of fear after it has faded. It may help people who spontaneously recall a learned threat, and uses MRI to monitor brain activity.
This study tests whether a brain training technique called neurofeedback can help treat depression. By showing your brain activity in real time on a screen, you may learn to control the brain patterns linked to depression and feel better.
This study tests a brain-training technique called gamma neurofeedback to see if it can improve working memory (the ability to hold and use information) in people with schizophrenia. You will learn to control brain waves while getting feedback in real time, which might help with memory and thinking.
