Abstract
The increase of cognitive demands in society nowadays requires new ways to deal with problems, such as burnout and mental fatigue. Lately, more and more scientifically-based rigorous research in the area of brain-computer interfaces has been done in the quest for restoring and augmenting cognition. The current research work investigates light-based priming and positive reinforcement as possible mediators of cognitive enhancement.
