Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
The study is intended to assess the effect of EEG-neurofeedback training on speed, accuracy and productivity of doing entry-level job tasks in patients with schizophrenia. Therefore, the primary outcome is changes in speed, accuracy and productivity of doing entry level job tasks due to EEG-neurofeedback training in patients with schizophrenia.Timepoint: 3 weeks—

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Effect of EEG-neurofeedback training on â?¢ Cognitive functions Time point: 3 weeks â?¢ Information processing as assessed by changes in amplitude and latency of P300 and related waveforms of EEG based event-related potentials Time point: 3 weeks in patients with schizophrenia performing on entry-level job tasks Timepoint: 3 weeks—
