Abstract

The aim of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of neurofeedback in improving reading in deaf children after cochlear implantation. This study was a statistical sample of 8 children (5 boys and 3 girls) aged 8-14 years with an IQ of 80, according to Wechsler test listed in the student’s file. After identifying the students based on certain criteria, they and their parents participated in the study, which took place in Ava center in Ilam, and, afterwards heard the explanations about the way they could run the business themselves. No history of seizure disorders, epilepsy and brain trauma was recorded. The cochlear implant was performed at 18 months and at maximum 24 months. The participants were randomly divided into an experimental group and a control group. The experimental group received neurofeedback treatment for 20 sessions of 40 minutes each (three sessions per week). The instruments used in this study were a demographic questionnaire (which included information such as age, grade, and IQ), a reading disorder test, and the neurofeedback devices. The ability to read the neurofeedback group showed that the reading difficulties in the experimental group were lower. In addition, the functional groups, relocation, replacement and reverse readings improved.
