Theta and alpha connectivity in children with autism spectrum disorder.

ABSTRACT: Spontaneous electroencephalography (EEG) measurements have demonstrated putative variations in the neural connectivity of subjects with autism spectrum disorder, as compared to neurotypical individuals. However, the exact nature of these connectivity differences has remained unknown, a question that we now address. Resting-state, eyes-open EEG data were recorded over 20 min from a cohort of 13 males aged 3-5 years with autism spectrum disorder, and nine neurotypical individuals as a control group. We use time-localized, phase-based methods of data analysis, including wavelet phase coherence and dynamical Bayesian inference. Several 3 min signal segments were analysed to evaluate the reproducibility of the proposed measures. In the autism spectrum disorder cohort, we demonstrate a significa
