First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looks at whether a single session of mindfulness-based neurofeedback can change brain patterns linked to repetitive negative thinking in adolescents. Researchers will compare 50 teens with high repetitive negative thinking to 50 healthy teens, using real or fake neurofeedback. The goal is to understand how the brain's default mode network responds, not to provide a treatment.
