Neurofeedback setup. a The participants will see a slightly adapted version of the pattern separation task while they will need to downregulate activity in one of two regions of interest. b The functional brain activity in this region of interest will be measured continuously and sent to the laptop containing OpenNFT. c These data will be processed in real-time to estimate the percent signal change in the region of interest, which will be sent to the presentation laptop. d The value of the percent signal change will then be presented to the participants with a dynamic thermometer that changes colour from red (indicating increased activity) to green (indicating decreased activity). The figure has been designed by the authors with stimuli illustrations from https://github.com/celstark/MST and icons from www.flaticon.com
