Neurofeedback for academic anxiety and creative thinking
Part of Mental health clinical trials.
This trial tests whether a brain-training technique called neurofeedback can reduce academic anxiety and boost creative thinking in senior high school students. It involves sessions where the brain's electrical activity is monitored and trained, which may help students feel calmer and think more flexibly.

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 uses special audio (binaural beats) played through headphones while your brain activity is measured with an EEG. It aims to see if listening to these beats can help reduce stress before a performance and improve your thinking.
This trial tests a neuro-based treatment to help adolescents with generalized anxiety disorder, including those newly diagnosed. You may be able to join if you meet age, diagnosis, and safety requirements, and if you have not already tried certain mindfulness programs.
This study tests a new type of brain training called neurofeedback to help children with ADHD. Children complete sessions where they learn to control their own brain activity, which may improve attention and focus.
