Abstract

Neurofeedback is a therapy of attention and concentration disorders adapted to the individual needs of the patient. Although problems with attention and memory can occur in both children and parents - with or without similar underlying causes - individual training protocols should be used for each person. The estimated duration of neurofeedback therapy is usually no less than 7 h of training. The present study reports on a 35-year-old mother and her 7-year-old child, presenting with the same cognitive problems. Despite individual training protocols, neurofeedback training yielded similar results across parent and child within the non-dominant hemisphere.
