A protocol for MIndfulness-based Neurofeedback to augment DBT psychotherapy for adults with Borderline Personality Disorder (MIND-BPD)
Overview
This paper outlines the protocol for the MIND-BPD trial, which investigates using mindfulness-based real-time neurofeedback to augment dialectical behavior therapy for adults with Borderline Personality Disorder. The study involves 52 participants randomly assigned to receive either real or sham neurofeedback before joining a six-month DBT group. Primary outcomes focus on changes in default mode network connectivity via brain scans, while secondary outcomes measure self-reported mindfulness levels.
