Abuse and neglect of children by caregivers often have long-lasting and pervasive effects on mental and neural development, including problems with attention, impulse control, self-regulation, and executive functioning. Impairment of affect regulation is thought to be the largest obstacle to effective intervention. In this pilot study of neurofeedback for polysymptomatic children with such histories, we found a significant improvement on affect regulation and executive functioning after 24 sessions of neurofeedback treatment. This offers the possibility of being able to improve learning, enhance self-efficacy, and develop better social relationships in this hitherto largely treatment resistant population.
