Summary
This study tests whether a non-invasive brain stimulation technique called repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) can change how adults with autism process social information. Researchers will measure brain activity and eye movements while participants look at faces, before and after stimulation. The goal is to understand the brain mechanisms behind social cognition in autism, not to provide a treatment.
