Brainwaves: These are patterns of neuron electrical activity within the brain, which EEGs measure. They're like different musical notes produced by our concert instruments.
Electrode: This is a conductor through which electricity enters or leaves an object, substance, or region. In our analogy, they're similar to microphones picking up each instrument’s sound at a concert.
Neurofeedback: This is a type of biofeedback that uses real-time displays of brain activity—most commonly EEG—to teach self-regulation of brain function. It's like adjusting those dials on our concert soundboard to achieve perfect harmony.
