A recent systematic review and meta-analysis published in JAMA Psychiatry concluded that neurofeedback does not significantly improve ADHD symptoms at the group level. While some small and statistically insignificant improvements were reported, the evidence does not support its widespread use for ADHD management.
Vero’s thoughts on the news:
The findings from this study provide crucial insights into the efficacy of neurofeedback for ADHD treatment. From a technological and development perspective, it highlights the importance of conducting rigorous and large-scale research before integrating new treatments or features into health-related applications. While neurofeedback technology is fascinating and holds potential, developers should be cautious about claiming effectiveness without substantial evidence. This study stresses the need for transparency and ongoing validation when creating apps aimed at managing ADHD or similar conditions.
