ADHD Since the first reports of<unk>  treatment in attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) in 1976, many studies have investigated the effects of<unk>  on different symptoms of ADHD such as inattention, impulsivity and hyperactivity. Recent investigation into the effectiveness of<unk>  for ADHD has found<unk>  to have durable effects following treatment, although prior work has contradicted this conclusion. Standard<unk>  protocols for ADHD include theta/beta, SMR and slow cortical potentials are well investigated and have demonstrated specificity. Depressive and anxiety disorders<unk>  training, particularly localized<unk>  training, has been found to be therapeutic for patients for depression and self-regulation. Individuals with post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) also have been found to benefit from<unk> , including children with developmental trauma. Traumatic brain injury and stroke<unk>  has been used to treat traumatic brain injury (TBI) in military and civilian populations.<unk>  has been also found to be generally positive for stroke recovery, with improvements found in motor function and behavior comparable with conventional occupational therapy. Epilepsy<unk>  has been found to be a viable alternative for patients who did not find benefit from other medical treatment. The most common protocol for seizure control was sensorimotor rhythm (SMR), which was found to significantly reduce weekly seizures. Performance enhancement The applications of<unk>  to enhance performance extend to the arts in fields such as music, dance, and acting. A study with conservatoire musicians found that alpha-theta training benefitted the three music domains of musicality, communication, and technique. Historically, alpha-theta training, a form of<unk> , was created to assist creativity by inducing hypnagogia, a "borderline waking state associated with creative insights", through facilitation of neural connectivity. Alpha-theta training has also been shown to improve novice singing in children. Alpha-theta<unk> , in conjunction with heart rate variability training, a form of biofeedback, has also produced benefits in dance by enhancing performance in competitive ballroom dancing and increasing cognitive creativity in contemporary dancers. Additionally,<unk>  has also been shown to instil a superior flow state in actors, possibly due to greater immersion while performing. However, randomized control trials have found that<unk>  training (using either sensorimotor rhythm or theta/beta ratio training) did not enhance performance on attention-related tasks or creative tasks. It has been suggested that claims made by proponents of alpha wave<unk>  training techniques have yet to be validated by randomized, double-blind, controlled studies, a view which even some supporters of alpha<unk>  training have also expressed.<unk>  has been used to improve athletic psychomotor and self-regulation ability. Sensorimotor rhythm<unk>  training of accuracy has been used in top-level sports, especially in target-based sports (e.g. golf).
