Abstract

This study explored the effects of neurofeedback on electroencephalogram, impulsivity, sensation seeking, game addiction symptoms and game craving of university students with game addiction symptoms. Twelve university students participated in this study, six were assigned to the experimental group, and the rest were assigned to the control group. The experiment group received 20 sessions of neurofeedback, but the control group received any treatment. The neurofeedback group showed more significant improvement in EEG, game addiction symptom severity and impulsivity than control group, and the improvements were maintained at follow up.

본 연구는 뉴로피드백 (Neurofeedback) 훈련이 게임중독 증상이 있는 대학생들의 뇌파, 다차원적 충동성, 감각추구, 게임중독 증상 및 게임 갈망에 미치는 효과를 알아보기 위한 것이다. 386명의 대학생을 대상으로 "한국형 성인용 게임중독 척도 (KGAS), 다차원적 충동성 척도 (UPPS-P), 역학조사센터 우울증 척도 (CES-D)"를 실시하였고, 이를 토대로 12명의 대학생을 처치집단에 6명, 통제집단에 6명씩 배정하였다. 뉴로피드백 집단에게 총 20회기의 뉴로피드백 훈련을 실시하였고, 통제집단에는 어떠한 처치도 실시하지 않았다. 연구 결과, 뉴로피드백 집단은 통제집단에 비해 뇌파, 게임중독 증상 심도와 충동성에서 유의한 향상이 있었고, 이러한 향상은 추적 조사에서도 유지되었다.
