Journal Title: Educational Research International - Year 2016, Vol 5, Issue 2
Abstract
The aim of this study was to explore the responses in attention span, behaviour and emotions of inattentive students on gender differences to Neuro feedback Training (NFT).Children who suffer from inattentiveness have difficulties in learning. Six students participated in 22 sessions of NFT for six months. NFT scores were compiled after each training session to assess the attention span of the students. Pre- and post-training interviews with teachers and parents were held to assess the students’ attention span, behaviour and emotions. The results indicated NFT could potentially be an efficacious treatment for inattentive students as most of them showed improvement. The changes observed are differed between boys and girls.
