- Music Therapy and Autism Spectrum Disorder: Literature ReviewPublication . Silva, Carolina Isabel Caldeira da; Oliveira, Catarina Filipa Pereira; Santos, Vítor Hugo JesusAutism spectrum disorder is a complex neurobiological disorder that affects social interaction, communication, and behavior. While there is no cure, MT has emerged as one of the most effective ways to improve the quality of life for individuals with autism. Music can help with communication, emotional expression, and reducing anxiety, providing a structured and predictable environment. MT can be used as a tool for self-expression, learning new concepts, and improving motor control. However, more research is needed to develop disease-modifying therapies that target the core deficits of the disorder.
