Types of training and data collection
Targets problem regions- focus on location rather than bandwidth.
Z-score training.
A temporal locking process where one systems motion or signal frequency entrains another.
Entrainment
Compreised in the medial pre-frontal cortex & the posterior cingulte cortex. is active when a person is at rest and not focused on the external enviroment.
Default mode network (DMN)
Made up of the cingulate gyrus, hippocampus, and amygdala. known as the emotional nerves system. helps with emotion processing, behaviors, motivatons, memory and the autonomic nervous system.
Limbic System
Includes every part of the nervous sytem besides the brain and spinal cord. brings messages to and from the central nervious system to the rest of the body.
Peripheral Nervious System (PNS)
Measures brain wave activity with 12 scalp locations. a comprehensive analysis of individual frequencies
QEEG or Quantitative EEG
Compares activity between 2 active scalp sites.
Bipolar montage
Central Executive Network (CEN)
Works with the nervous sytem. Sends messages by secreting hormones that activate glands in the various body and brain glands.
Endocrine System
Parasympathetic Nervous System
Type of biofeedback that helps understand heart rate performance.
Heart Rate Variability Training.
Collects infomation at the active site & compares that activity with the common referecne electrode
Referential (monopolar) montage
Sailience network (SN)
A network of neurons extended from the top of the spinal cord to the thalamus. it filters incoming sensory and direct them to the cerebral cortex. controls and regulates the sleep-wake cycle. helps us pay attention, consciousness and supports brain rhythms
Reticular Activating System (RAS)
Responsible for 'fight or flight". manaages involuntary functions.
Sympathetic Nervous system
From the EEG but are images that look liek MRI/pet scan images. Can estimate where the source is coming from and gives a direct measurement of neuronal activity
sLORETA
Founded by Pension & Kulkocky. Used for peak performance and substance abuse. sensor placement is always posterior, midline or both hemispheres. wants to creat a cross-over state
Alpha/Theta training
Key areas- ventral frontal cortex and intra-parietal sulcus. closer to the middle of the brain. helps deal with activities when unplanned changes happen that needs to be recognized.
Ventral Attention Network (VAN)
Respobsible for voluntary movements and muscle movements. one of the peripheral nervous subsystems. controls nerves in the body that carry info from your sound, smell, taste and touch senses but not your vision
Somatic Nervous System
Connects your brain to most of your internal organs. manages involuntary actions.
Autonomic Nervous System
targets Glial cellls (mostly astrocytes) looks for frequencies as low as .005- .1Hz or even lower.
Intra-slow oscillations (ISO) / Low frequency training
Type of biofeedback that record electrical activity of muscles coming from the surface of the skin. generally ranges from 15 to 300 Hz.
SEMG - Surface electromyography
Dorsal Attention Network (DAN)
Consists of the brain and spinal cord. the command center of the body. responsible for taking info in and sending it out to the whole body. Regulates everything your body does.
Central Nervous System
part of the ANS that manges how food is digested
Enteric Nervous System
