| Popis: | This paper presents Wechsler (WISC-R) profiles and changes following the application of an EEG biofeedback treatment regimen for brain-based learning disabilities. EEG biofeedback trained increases in activation (increased amplitude of 14 Hz brainwave energy) of the central and sensorimotor cortex's neural activation network resulted in increases in bihemispheric skills (complementary verbal-expressive and visual-motor abilities) Prerequisite to a successful learning posture, the acquisition of reading, and integration of higher-order learning. Enhanced/normalized academic, physical, and psychophysiological abilities were reflected in changes in brainwave energy signature and WISC-R data. Brainwave signatures and WISC-R profiles “normalised” as a result of training with significant remediation of learning disorders. There was significant growth in WISC-R Full Scale (FS), Verbal, and Performance IQ scores, reflecting improved brain function end resultant test performance, with a “normalisation” of... |
