Brief Summary
Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.
In addition, a critical and up-to-date comparison of different treatments for GAD is crucial due to their high costs and unsatisfactory outcomes. EEG neurofeedback training has not reached the same level of evidence as more extensively validated non-pharmacological treatments, such as cognitive behavioral therapy.This study aimed to compare the efficacy of two protocols: one targeting alpha-theta amplitude increase and the other concentrating on SMR.
