| Core Tip |
Neurofeedback therapy (NFT), a non-invasive technique using real-time electroencephalography feedback to self-regulate brain activity, may offer benefits for neural dysregulation in autism spectrum disorder. However, current evidence is limited by small sample sizes and protocol variability. While NFT could potentially enhance neuroplasticity and complement behavioral therapies, its clinical application requires validation through rigorous randomized controlled trials. Future work should focus on personalizing protocols based on biomarkers and improving accessibility via telehealth solutions. |
