🎧 TAB 1 : FOCUS & αCLAS MODULATION
📚 Deep Study Flow & 3-Second Cognitive Friction
When fatigue hits, in-ear EEG tracks Theta/Beta load ratio (CLI) and delivers αCLAS 10Hz Alpha modulation (Hebron et al., 2024). A 3-second breathing micro-friction barrier intercepts mindless doomscrolling, with 36% of opens abandoned immediately (PNAS 2023).
🧠αCLAS 10Hz Alpha Modulation
In-ear closed-loop acoustic stimulation delivers phase-reset pulses to selectively modulate prefrontal-occipital alpha oscillations (Hebron et al., 2024), stabilizing deep flow.
🧘3s Breathing Micro-Friction
Applying the self-nudge micro-friction principle from Grüning et al. (PNAS 2023) (demonstrating cutting mindless opens by 37%), Cue injects a 3s breathing pause to break automatic dopamine loops.
Growth Mindset Principle: Combines closed-loop auditory alpha modulation (Hebron et al., PLOS Biol 2024) with effort-based feedback (Yeager et al., Nature 2022) to nurture intrinsic adolescent self-regulation without blind flattery or punitive lockouts.
