Summary

This study aims to demonstrate that improvements in identification of social clues (and improvement of overall social behaviour) in subjects with ASD can be achieved using social games together with a BCI setup. The primary goal is to ensure increased rate of responses to joint attention cues. Intervention Type is a Device (brain computer interface using EEG). Structure: (1) initial eligibility screening (within 1 week after admission), (2) pre-intervention (first week of study, baseline outcome measures and additional evaluations), (3) intervention process (16 weeks), (4) post-intervention (outcome measures and additional evaluations), and (5) follow-up (outcome measures at 6 months).
