  1. Hello, I am very interested in this subject. I have been told that Neurofeedback is effective after 30 to 40, thirty minute sessions, and being on amphetamines can interfere with effectiveness. When I looked at this study it looked like only 5 to 6 sessions were completed per participant, and participants continued to take amphetamines. Can you explain if I am missing something or what explains the discrepancy?
