The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effects of SMR neurofeedback training on cognitive performance and electrical brain activity in elderly with cognitive impairment.
Older adults with Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI) are at high risk to progress to Alzheimer's disease (AD). Slowing down effect of dementia by enhancing brain plasticity represents on of the most prominent challenges. Neurofeedback is one of the promising techniques that showed therapeutic efficacy and cognitive improvement in attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder, epilepsy, stroke. The investigators aim to study the effects of a sensorimotor neurofeedback training protocol (SMR) on cognitive performances in elderly and to assess whether MCI patients change in brain electrical activity after training.

| Neurofeedback | Behavioral | Neurofeedback experiment will consist of 20 sessions of neurofeedback training, twice or three times a week during seven weeks. Each session will last for 40 minutes. The experimental group will undergo questionnaires, EEG recording and neuropsychological assessments in three-time points, pre-training (T0), post-trianing (T1) and 1 month follow-up (T2). Electroencephalography will be recorded by a technician in EEG for each participant, EEG power spectrum will be calculated in pre (T0) and post neurofeedback training/psycho-pedagogical care at T1 and T2. |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Change on Rey Auditory Verbal Learning test | Assessment of Verbal learning in episodic memory | Baseline assessment in 2 weeks period before intervention, change from baseline at immediately after the end of the intervention , and after 1-month follow-up |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| relative power for delta, theta, alpha, sensorimotor and lower beta frequency bands. | Description : Electroencephalography was recorded and EEG power spectrum was calculated using the fast Fourier Transform. The power spectral density was calculated to extract the relative power for each frequency band and estimated as a log-ratio. | assessment at baseline, change from baseline to immediately after the NF training and 1 month follow-up |
