Do you have any science to back those claims up? What are you basing it on?

- ahewett 11y agoHey, good question! Here's a bibliography we're still working on. More to add, but a good start so far: https://www.brain.fm/pdfs/ResearchLibrary.pdf https://www.brain.fm/pdfs/ResearchLibrary.pdf We've also done our own research that is pending publication: https://www.brain.fm/pdfs/EEGFocusAnalysis.pdf https://www.brain.fm/pdfs/EEGFocusAnalysis.pdf https://www.brain.fm/pdfs/EEGSleepAnalysis.pdf https://www.brain.fm/pdfs/EEGSleepAnalysis.pdf Here's an independent study on HRV using our tech: https://www.brain.fm/pdfs/ElioConteHRVandBWE.pdf https://www.brain.fm/pdfs/ElioConteHRVandBWE.pdf We're planning on following that one up with a more robust study, because our users do get great results with HRV and it's an interesting topic. One of our former neuroscientists published a meta-analysis, but it's a bit outdated now re: what we're doing. Still, it's on our site or in the journal if you're interested. :)
- plowman 11y agoOn the brain.fm they list results, but they are super flimsy. For focus, for example, n=17, and the difference between music vs non-music is much smaller than the standard deviation of either group. So it's possible this stuff helps you focus, but it doesn't appear to be showing up on these studies.
- ahewett 11y agoIt's actually a really good result, for a number of reasons. But I'll let Giovanni respond to this later and clarify (he's the neuroscientist that wrote the paper). I apologize for the delay, he's dealing with some family and health problems right now. But I promise we'll clear this up.
- ahewett 11y agoGiovanni responded to the main thread. I asked him to respond to this specifically but he's super busy. This is his response: "He doesn't know what he is talking about. Means do not have to be a standard deviation away to make the result significant."
