Neurofeedback and Adolescents
The human body comprises multiple biofeedback that ensures body functionality. The biofeedback is either positive or negative, and its purpose involves maintaining homeostasis. Recent technological developments have contributed to digital biofeedback, whereby individuals can monitor their body functions through connections to electric sensors. Consistently, neurofeedback is a biofeedback type whereby neural activities are monitored and presented through the sensors to self-regulate body functions and behaviors. Neurofeedback is used in monitoring brain changes, and thus, it can be used to monitor brain changes in adolescents.
It is evident in societies that the adolescence stage comes with multiple changes, such as increased deviant behavior. These changes during adolescence can be elaborated using neurofeedback. According to Konrad et al. (2013), the brain undergoes radical changes during adolescence, in which the brain undergoes reorganization. As adolescents grow past their childhood years and towards adulthood, many aspects of their lives change, including their social life and individual identities; this is when brain reorganizing occurs. Brain changes occurring during this reorganization include white matter increase, gray matter decrease, synapse elimination, restructuring of cortical circuits, and changes in neurotransmitters; these changes can be monitored using neurofeedback (Konrad et al., 2013).
Subsequently, these changes affect cognitive functions and emotions, illustrating the source of adolescents’ behavior; for instance, an increase in delinquency and weight changes, with some being overweight and others being underweight. Neurofeedback can be used to monitor the changes listed to identify the cause for changes in an adolescent through electroencephalographic (EEG) and electrophysiological techniques (Konrad et al., 2013). Adolescents’ behaviors can be remedied through positive models that will influence their emotions and other reward models that will influence their behavior (Konrad et al., 2013).
