The University of Alabama has conducted a groundbreaking study on the brain patterns of teenagers affected with autism.
In the study, males between 13 and 21 from Alabama had their brain activity measured while playing video games that stimulated social interaction. These games were actual competitive games where opponents were also measured for brain activity.
“These teenagers were actually interacting with someone else while in this brain scanner,” Mark Klinger, associate professor of psychology.
