Jarusiewicz BJournal of Neurotherapy2002 Spr; 6/1: 76-77

ABSTRACT: Introduction: The purpose of this study was to characterize, quantify and document the efficacy of neurofeedback for individuals in the Autism spectrum.

Conclusion: Before and after videos were used to corrovorate data. When compared with other treatment modalities using Rimland’s Treatment Effectiveness Survey (Rimland & Edelson, 2001), neurofeedback is rated on a par with occupational therapy, and is surpassed to date only by behavior modification and speech therapies, even inthis early-stage comparison.
