1. Initial assessment of Case #1 “BF” (pre-training QEEG analysis)
using NeuroGuide v (Thatcher)
- Z Scored FFT Summary Information in both eyes closed and eyes open recording conditions indicated significant dysregulation when compared to the database norms
BF Q1 Eyes Closed
BF Q1 Eyes Open

2. Each pairing of channels: - Asymmetry - Coherence - Phase
4 channel Z-score training provides observation of, and potential impact to, 248 Z-scores for 6 important metrics.
Each channel of EEG:
- Absolute power
- Relative power
- Power ratios
Each pairing of channels:
- Asymmetry
- Coherence
- Phase
Training site placements for

“Cortical Disassociation Rhythm” (Approx. 2-3Hz)
- cortical activity not regulated by external sensory input
Sterman & Kaiser, 2009

7. Pre-Training, Eyes Open Post 40 Sessions, Eyes Open
Deficient connectivity in alpha (8-12Hz) decreased after 40 sessions of training
when observed in SKIL maps

8. - After 20 sessions, NG maps presented excess frontal delta
Pre-Training, Eyes Open
- Excess frontal delta (2-4Hz) in SKIL maps decreased after 40 sessions
- Deficient delta activity in central regions was observed in NG pre-training maps
- After 20 sessions, NG maps presented excess frontal delta
- Delta activity became more regulated after 40 sessions
Post 40 Sessions, Eyes Open

9. Changes in delta absolute power and coherence over the course of training indicate some interesting possibilities for future research:
- there may be a mid-training phase that prioritizes allocation of cortical resources for the purpose of reorganizing neural connectivity
- hypercoherence could be a manifestation of increased thalamocortical activity which necessitates a temporary diversion of energetic resources to improve the efficiency of the interactive pathways between the thalamus and the cortex

10. Case #1: “BF” PRE – TREATMENT Assessment
Delay in development of verbal and non-verbal communication
Lack of social or emotional reciprocity
Stereotyped and repetitive motor manners, impaired fine motor
Tourettes-like physical spasms, and high-pitched vocalizations
Failure to develop peer relationships appropriate to developmental level, or to spontaneously engage peers in play activities
Interrupted sleep patterns, and nocturnal enuresis
Aggressive behavior toward peers and service providers, including hitting, scratching, grabbing and biting
POST– TREATMENT Observations and Parental Reports
Verbalizations changed from primarily prompted and time-delayed to spontaneous and real-time
Spontaneous displays of affection
Decrease in repetitive behaviors and verbalizations
Increased motoric and verbal self-regulation
Increased voluntary interaction with peers in social and school environments
Improved sleep patterns, and decreased nocturnal enuresis
Dramatic decrease in aggressive behaviors, and increase in ability to tolerate frustration
