Neurofeedback Training for Dyslexia
View on ClinicalTrials.gov
Updated Dec 15, 2025
Brief Summary
The study aims at testing a Neurofeedback (NF) training specifically designed for inducing a functional hemispheric imbalance of the tempo-parietal regions in individuals with dyslexia. A randomized clinical trial aimed at comparing two experimental conditions is described: a) Left theta/beta NF training in combination with right beta/theta NF training and b) sham NF training.
