The Effects of Neurofeedback Training on Brainwave and Behaviour of the Autistic Disorder Children

This study explores the application of Neurofeedback Training (NFT) on social and behavioural changes among Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) children using pre-test and post-test within subject quasi experimental study. The study involved 34 participants from Kuching Autistic Association (KAA) usi...
