Neurofeedback therapy that is designed specifically for the child may help with the core symptoms of autism.
The study was designed to test the effect of neurofeedback therapy on 37 children with autism. The study found an 89% success rate with a 40% decrease in core autism symptoms. This is the second controlled study to find that neurofeedback therapy can help children with autism. The authors therefore describe neurofeedback therapy as "possibly efficacious" in treating autism. Neurofeedback therapy should next be tested in a randomized controlled trial that is placebo controlled.
