Neurofeedback training (NFT) has been used to treat clinical conditions such as epilepsy and Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder. It was not until the early 90s that NFT was applied in the sport domain. NFT can help users control their brain activity, and result in function or symptom changes. Although the number of studies that have applied NFT to enhance motor performance are limited, most of these studies have shown a positive effect. However, some of these studies suffer from weak research design and methodology, which compromises the quality of evidence for the effectiveness of NFT on motor performance. Therefore, this paper intends to review related research with a particular focus on the methodological issues of electrode, frequency band, times, subject assignment, and study design to provide suggestions for future research.
