Historical overview
Electroencephalography (EEG), on which neurofeedback is based, was developed by Hans Berger between 1929 and 1938.[1] Neurofeedback was developed in 60s and 70s, while the research on this method was conducted primarily by the U.S. researchers. The subjects of the research were firstly cats but the researchers began the trials with human subjects soon after the introduction of the method.[2]
