4.  Biofeedback = the technique of using monitoring devices to furnish information regarding an automatic bodily function, such as heart rate or blood pressure, in an attempt to gain some voluntary control over these functions[1].

5.  (EEG) Electroencephalography is the recording of electrical activity along the scalp produced by the firing of neurons within the brain [2]. -Method of Detection: - Detects: Wave patterns (i.e. Delta, Theta, Alpha, Beta, Gamma and Mu) and Event Related Potentials (P300, N200, N2pc, and more)
