Research abstract
The U.S. military has a pressing need to increase human information throughput. The proposed research will explore the effectiveness of a method to enhance human cognitive performance, to increase information uptake. Specifically, we propose the investigation of an innovative approach to the direct enhancement of the function of the human cognitive 'hardware' through nonpharmaceutical means: neurofeedback. This proposal describes research directed at proof-of-concept regarding the enhancement of human attentional capacity in military-relevant tasks through neurofeedback (the combination of electroencephalography and operant conditioning).
