A role for preparatory midfrontal theta in autism as revealed by a high executive load brain–computer interface reverse spelling task
Abstract Midfrontal theta oscillations have been linked to executive function, yet their role in autism—where this function is often compromised—remains unclear. We hypothesized that preparatory increases in theta power may help normalize performance in autism. To test this, we used a challenging in...
