ABSTRACT Magnetoencephalography (MEG) research
Keywords: Autism, Beta, Connectivity, False belief, MEG, indicates differences in neural brain measures in chil-
Theta dren with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) compared
to typically developing (TD) children. As reviewed here,
Biological psychiatry. Cognitive neuroscience and resting-state MEG exams are of interest as well as MEG
neuroimaging (2020), Vol. 5, No. 9 (32600899) (6 citations) paradigms that assess neural function across domains
(e.g., auditory, resting state). To date, MEG research has
primarily focused on group-level differences. Research
Relationship between epileptiform discharges and is needed to explore whether MEG measures can pre-
social reciprocity or cognitive function in children dict, at the individual level, ASD diagnosis, prognosis
with and without autism spectrum disorders: An (future severity), and response to therapy.
