Healthy Clinical Trial
Official title:
Real-time Neurofeedback Training of Fronto-limbic Areas Functional Connectivity to Reduce Arousal
This is randomized active-sham group controlled between-subject real-time fMRI neurofeedback trial aimed at modulating the ventromedial prefrontal cortex (vmPFC)-amygdala pathway to control subjective anxiety and arousal.

Other | Level of behavioural anxiety assessed on NRS from 0 to 10 | After the presentation of movie clips inducing strong fearful emotions, the participant will rate the behavioural level of anxiety on a Numeric Rating Scale (NRS) from 0 (lowest level of anxiety) to 10 (highest level of anxiety). The neurofeedback group will present lower level of anxiety in comparison to the sham group. | 10 minutes | |
Primary | Functional connectivity computed from blood oxygenation level dependent (BOLD) functional magnetic resonance imaging between regions of interest. | Increased functional connectivity computed from BOLD fMRI over the course of the real-time NF-fMRI training sessions in the neurofeedback group (regions of interest: bilateral amygdala and prefrontal area) but not in the sham group (regions of interest: bilateral motor cortex and primary auditory areas). Functional connectivity strength will be represented by bivariate regression coefficients from a general linear model characterizing the association between their BOLD signal timeseries | 40 minutes | |
Secondary | Level of behavioural arousal assessed on NRS from 0 to 10 | After the presentation of movie clips inducing strong fearful emotions, the participant will rate the behavioural level of arousal on a Numeric Rating Scale (NRS) from 0 (lowest level of arousal) to 10 (highest level of arousal). The neurofeedback group will present lower level of arousal in comparison to the sham group. | 10 minutes |
