Seems to be the same article (in total) referenced above with a different name and url.
Here's the link and a bit of the summary. Some of the more tech-talk and neurollogically inclined can probee the article for sense or non-sense - how about you Scott, this stuff make ANY sense to ya...

"It is suggested that neurofeedback results are more persistent than those with stimulant medication because neurofeedback and stimulants may operate at different locations with different receptivity to long-term potentiation by neuromodulation. Finally, it is suggested that there is a commonality of mechanisms in ADD, OCD, depression, and schizophrenia which 1) lets us conceptualize each of these as variants of a disorder of attention, and 2) suggests a basis for the positive neurofeedback effects with ADD, OCD, and depression (and perhaps someday schizophrenia)."
