“…Conversely, Millan et al ( 2014 ) were cautiously optimistic that “hypofrontality” associated with negative symptoms could be reduced by cognitive behavioral and social skills trainings (Elis et al 2013 ; Rus-Calafell et al 2013 ), by vocational rehabilitation (Bio and Gattaz 2011 ), or by repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) applied to the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (cf., Sürmeli 2014 ).…”

“…No studies specifically addressing negative symptoms in schizophrenia by neurofeedback were found in our literature search. Concerning the treatment of various symptoms in schizophrenia, Sürmeli ( 2014 ) reviewed empirical findings regarding the reduction of stress, sleeping problems and general psychopathology and concluded that neurofeedback had been found to be “‘possibly’ […] to ‘probably’ efficacious”. Sürmeli et al ( 2012 ) found a highly significant reduction of positive, negative, and cognitive symptoms by neurofeedback, but their protocol did not address negative symptoms specifically.…”

Negative symptoms of schizophrenia, like diminished emotional expression and a dearth of self-initiated behavior do not respond reliably to anti-psychotic medication or to conventional psychotherapeutic approaches. Starting from evidence on the probable neural basis of such symptoms and on the effectiveness of neurofeedback with other psychological disorders, the present case study applied 20 sessions of EEG neurofeedback to a 45-year-old female and a 30-year-old male, both diagnosed with severe negative symptoms of schizophrenia. In both cases GAF scores were improved significantly and at the end of treatment, both patients did not meet the diagnostic criteria of negative symptomatology any longer. Symptom reduction went along with an obvious improvement of social, interpersonal, and cognitive abilities according to the clinical impression. Detailed data analysis revealed that these improvements went along with corresponding changes of EEG parameters and with distinct patterns and strategies of change in each of the two individuals. The results suggest that EEG neurofeedback should be examined on a larger scale as it offers a promising alternative to existing treatment approaches for negative symptoms in schizophrenia.

“…These features set major psychoses apart as separate and distinguishable phenomena, justifying their categorization as distinct disease entities separate from other mental illnesses. Furthermore, since major psychoses like schizophrenia involve profound disruptions in fundamental cognitive processes like thinking, perception, and information processing, it is plausible that there are underlying biological mechanisms contributing to these "low-level" psychological functions 5 (Hart & Lewine, 2017;Sürmeli, 2014).…”

Quantitative electroencephalogram enables mathematical analysis of neurological recordings while conventional electroencephalogram lacks the mathematical output; hence, its usage is limited to neurological experts. This study was to determine if quantified conventional electroencephalogram recordings were compatible and comparable with quantitative electroencephalogram recordings. A group of post-call doctors was recruited and subjected to an EEG recording using a conventional electroencephalogram followed by a quantitative electroencephalogram device. The patterns and quantified recording results were compared. A comparative analysis of the two recording sets did not find differences in the recording patterns and statistical analysis. The findings promoted the use of a readily available conventional electroencephalogram in quantitative brain wave studies and have cleared potential compatibility bias towards data merging.
