  • Title: Reducing epileptic seizures through operant conditioning of central nervous system activity: procedural variables.
    Author: Cott A, Pavloski RP, Black AH.
    Journal: Science; 1979 Jan 05; 203(4375):73-5. PubMed ID: 758682.
    Abstract:
    Operant conditioning of the sensorimotor rhythm of the human electroencephalogram with time-outs contingent on epileptiform activity reduces epileptic seizure rates in patients whose seizures are not well controlled by medication. A comparison of this procedure with time-out training alone demonstrates that operant conditioning of the sensorimotor rhythm is neither necessary nor sufficient for seizure reduction.
