Abstract

This study aims to determine whether intermittent theta burst stimulation (iTBS) applied to the right temporoparietal junction (TPJ) improves face processing in autistic adolescents and young adults compared with sham stimulation. The present document outlines the planned analyses for this study which forms part of a larger multisite randomised controlled trial. For comprehensive details on trial design and methodology, please see the attached published protocol (Enticott et al., 2021).
