뉴로피드백 훈련 프로그램(생기능자기조절 훈련) 효과에 대한 메타분석 - 국내 연구를 중심으로

Abstract

Objectives: This study was undertaken to evaluate the effectiveness of the Neurofeedback training programme (NFT), and systematically search for factors related to the NFT.Methods: This study applied meta-analysis to thesis and journal articles published in Korea. A total of 42 papers published between 2001 to August in 2015 were evaluated, which were selected through a database search. Results: Summarizing the evaluation, the quality of results was low. The meta-analysis revealed that the effect size of the neurofeedback programme training was 0.691, over the median. Also, the varia-bles were statistically significant to the neurofeedback programme training effect, and were con-sistent with the subject characteristics, their disabilities/non disabilities, and level of education. The re-sults were also statistically significant to the neuro-feedback programme training effect according to the research method (training method), the sessions per a week, total sessions, and training time. Conclusions: The RoBANS result of 42 studies is at a risk of being highly biased. However, statistically, the meta-analysis result of the factors evaluated is significantly high.
