The electroencephalograph (EEG) is a way to show and measure brain activation. The EEG shows momentary increases and decreases in activity only milliseconds after it occurs in the brain area being monitored. Although Hans Berger is credited with discovering the electroencephalograph in 1924 (and published in 1929), it wasn't until experiments in the 60's and early 1970's that neuroscientists began to discover that we are able to alter these patterns of activation in the brain if we can sense the momentary changes as they occur. This process, now called neurofeedback, or neurotherapy, is a specific form of biofeedback - getting immediate information about our biological processes in order to learn to control them better.
