Edmund Jacobson in 1908 developed
the progressive muscle relaxation technique
(1958). Although most of his research on the
conditioning of muscle relaxation was conducted
50 years ago, it remains relevant. For example,
most therapeutic applications of biofeedback
include the use of a systematic relaxation technique.
Although Jacobson's system has been modified
over time, his ideas and research methods have
much to offer clinicians and researchers. Based
on an interview reported by Mcguigan, he may
have been the first researcher to use medical
instrumentation to provide feedback about physiological
responses (Jacobson and McGuigan), 1978). His
procedure, employing a prototype of modern biofeedback
instrumentation, involved an individual observing
an oscilloscope to determine the level of tension
in his forearm extensor muscle. Later, Wolpe
(1973) modified Jacobson's technique and popularized
it as part of the systematic desensitization
procedure.
In 1958, Kamiya (1969) began
to study the changes in consciousness that accompanied
variations in EEG alpha rhythm of human subjects.
He developed a discrimination conditioning task
in which a bell was rung periodically and the
subject was requested to indicate if he had
been generating EEG alpha just prior to the
auditory stimulus. Many subjects were able to
learn this task and this led to further research
of alpha rhythm control. Kamiya and his associates
later discovered that subjects could suppress
alpha when given auditory feedback concerning
its presence or absence. Although the initial
claims of alpha wave trainers were found to
be exaggerated, research by Kamiya and others
continues and may eventually lead to the development
of more effective clincial methods. Due to the
unpredictability of the results so far, the
clinical utility of EEG alpha rhythm training
remains problematic (Miller, 1974).
Ancoli and Kamiya (1978) reviewed
several areas of controversy surrounding EEG
biofeedback. For example, one unresolved issue
is whether or not the reported increases in
EEG alpha are due to reductions in visual and
oculomotor responding. Ancoli and Kamiya reviewed
45 different EEG biofeedback studies from 1968
to 1976 and concluded that a majority of the
studies suffered from methodological weaknesses.
They believed that many negative results occurred
because training times were too short and experimental
conditions were not optimum. They suggest that,
in the future, researchers should employ at
least 4 training sessions, used continous feedback
with quantitive progress scores and use experimental
trials which have a duration of at least 10
minutes.
One of the intriguing areas
of investigation concerns the search for empirical
validation of visceral or smooth-muscle operant
conditioning. Since 1938, when Skinner could
not demonstrate operant conditioning of the
vasoconstrictory responses, researchers have
been interested in this area of learning.
Neal Miller and his colleages
most notably, (the late Leo DiCara) have been
involved in research on instrumental autonomic
conditioning in animals for a number of years.
In 1968, DiCara and Miller observed that curarized
rats could learn to avoid a shock by lowering
their heart rate. Miller's attempts to replicate
this finding in subsequent years, however, met
with frustration. Nevertheless, during this
time other investigators showed that visceral
conditioning, through the use of feedback techniques,
could be demonstrated in man (Miller and Dworkin,
1974).
Whether or not Miller's original
findings were artifactual or due to complex
interactions of variables is still undetermined.
There is no doubt, however, that the publication
of his early research on visceral conditioning
in animals did much to stimulate others to investigate
similar issues in man, and more sophisticated
biofeedback techniques were developed.
Although less well known, H
D Kimmel (1960) spent years investigating instrumental
conditioning off the autonomic nervous system
(ANS) in man. Stimulated by results of earlier
experiments in conditioning of the galvanic
skin response (GSR), Kimmel and his students
found that subjects' GSR's could be conditioned
using pleasant odors. Kimmel (1974) summarized
the research up to 1967, including 16 studies
of GSR, five of heart rate and three of the
vasomotor response. Results of all these studies
supported the contention that the ANS could
be modified through operant conditioning.
These findings were criticized
by Katkin and Murray (1968) who argued that
such results may be due to skeletal mediators
and have still obtained positive results. For
example, Lang and Melamed (1969) were able to
condition aversively a 9-month-old child who
suffered from ruminative vomiting. In addition,
Frezza and Holland 1971) demonstrated that human
salivation can be instrumentally conditioned.
Subsequently biofeedback procedures
were applied to clinical problems. In 1973,
two innovative treatment procedures were developed
which are widely used today, with certain technical
refinements. Elmer and Alyce Green (1977) developed
a clinical protocol for thermal feedback training.
They used peripheral skin temperature as a measure
of vasodilatation and combined skin temperature
feedback with Schultz and Luthe's (1969) "Autogenic
Training". Sargent, Green and Walters (1972)
applied temperature biofeedback training to
treat migraine. Patients were taught to increase
the warmth in their fingers (vasodilatation)
while decreasing the temperature of their foreheads
(vasoconstriction). They found that almost 75
percent of the subjects were able to decrease
both the duration and intensity of migraine
attacks. Later studies have confirmed these
results.
While the Green's were developing
their treatment technique for migraine, Thomas
Budzynski (1973) and his associates at the University
of Colorado developed a feedback technique to
treat muscle contraction (tension) headaches.
They used EMG training to teach patients to
reduce the tension in their frontalis (forehead)
muscles. Their results showed that average muscle
tension levels dropped from 10 to 3.5 (microvolts)
and headaches intensity was reduced over the
16-week training period. Two control groups
of headache patients were employed in the experimental
design; one group received "false"
or pseudofeedback and the other group received
no feedback at all. Neither of these groups
improved as much as the EMG treatment group.
Since then, the results have been somewhat mixed
regarding the effectiveness of EMG biofeedback
compared with simple relaxation methods.
The clinical research which
has been reviewed thus far has involved procedures
where feedback is used to reduce muscle and
blood vessel contraction ("physiological
arousal"); however, a technique to increase
muscle contraction (a form of EMG biofeedback
training) has existed for almost 25 years. John
Basmajian's (1979) early research, first published
in 1963, indicated that patients can increase
the functioning of single motor units through
the use of EMG biofeedback. Even earlier, Marinacci
and Horande (1960) demonstrated that EMG feedback
could be applied to improve neuromuscular functioning
in several disorders. Basmajian and his colleages
have designed speciallly constructed biofeedback
instruments for use in rehabilitation, e.g.,
a miniatue EMG feedback device. They have applied
such instrumentation to various disorders including
paralytic foot-drop. There is significant difference
between the EMG units used in rehabilitation
and those adapted for use with psychophysiological
disorders. The biofeedback units employed in
rehabilitation are designed to transmit information
about single motor units or the functioning
of a specific muscle. Most of the EMG units
used to enhance relaxation, however, summate
the bioelectrical information of a particular
muscle group. The resulting feedback is somewhat
less specific.
Prior to 1970, relatively few
studies were conducted using biofeedback techniques.
Since then, however, hundreds of investigations
have been done and the accumulation of data
has been impressive. For this reason, BSA task
forces were developed to survey the current
literature and summarize the current status
of biofeedback as a therapeutic technique in
a number of areas including: psychophysiological
disorders (Fotopoulos and Sunderland, 1978),
gastrointestinal disease (Whitehead, 1978),
vasoconstrictive disorders (Taub and Stroebel,
1978), muscle tension headache (Budzynski, 1978)
and others.
In 1989 Nelson proposed and
proved that biofeedback need not be just a conscious
or verbal process. The EPFX was designed to
do feedback to the patient’s unconscious.
In summary, individuals in certain
circumstances can learn to control various physiologic
processes as a result of biofeedback training.
There is still considerable confusion and controversy
regarding how this learning takes place, however.
Biofeedback can be viewed as developing from
earlier forms of learning therapy. However whether
or not biofeedback involves a form of conditioning
is still undetermined.
