Using Video Games for the Treatment of Symptoms of Autism

Using Video Games for the Treatment of Symptoms of Autism

Autism spectrum disorder is a disorder that has a growing prevalence in children and with traditional methods of treatment being ineffective, expensive, or scarce, new methods of intervention must be found. Using video games for the treatment of ASD, and other disorders, is a novel field that has promising results. Early studies show that video games are beneficial for typically developing kids and even children with ADHD. Newer studies have shown that those benefits can be translated to children with ASD as well. The purpose of this paper is to show that using video games for the treatment of autism is a promising field that should be studied more in-depth.
