Abstract

Autistic people could benefit from tDCS that (transcranial direct current stimulation) in social and cognitive areas. This article discusses how tDCS affects ASD and social interaction. Several randomised controlled studies and a meta-analysis suggests that transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) improves social functioning and reduces once more in a behaviour. Transcranial direct stimulation (tDCS) procedures could also affect in trial results due to electrode location, current strength, and stimulation duration. Because of the small sample size and lack in the follow-up, more study is needed. Due to the disparity, tDCS and approaches need more research. Future ASD, tDCS research should include larger sample numbers, longer follow-ups, and more subpopulations. Research is needed to discover if transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) can treat autism. Contradictory evidence shows that consistent and accurate tDCS outcomes require well-established techniques. Autism research needs to examine the neurological consequences of transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) and appropriate stimulation settings. The research on the brain underpinnings of social cognition and conduct in tDCS is needed to improve therapies.
