Abstract: A method to treat a predetermined patient population for post traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), the method including: selecting a population of patients diagnosed with PTSD; delivering a NF treatment to the population; achieving a reduction of at least 6 points in average in a CAPS-5 scale in the selected population, after a time period between 8 weeks and 12 weeks of the delivering.

Abstract: An exemplary system, method, and computer-accessible medium for generating diagnostic data associated with a likelihood a patient(s) developing a mental disease(s) can be provided, which can include, for example, providing a visual patterns to the patient(s), receiving electroencephalogram (EEG) information from the patient(s) that can be based on the visual pattern(s); and generating the diagnostic data based on the EEG information.

Abstract: A method for training a predetermined subject population expected to experience or is experiencing at least one symptom of depression, including: selecting a population of subjects expected to experience in the future or is experiencing at least one symptom of depression; training the selected population of subjects using a neurofeedback (NF) training protocol to increase an activity of the brain positive valence system, the training comprises, presenting to each subject of the selected population of subjects a sensory indication, instructing the subject to modify the presented sensory indication by performing at least one specific activity, detecting an increase in a brain pleasure response in the subject, and providing to the subject a feedback signal indicating the increase in the brain pleasure response during the presenting.
