Abstract

The literature review conducted for this article revealed that there are very few studies about EAAT in the international literature. Although EAAT is used for psychiatric disorders, autism and behavioral disorders, the overall effectiveness of EAAT for many of the indications is unclear and more research has been recommended. The symptoms of ASD necessitate a multi-faceted therapeutic approach and the role of EAAT is substantial. The literature review shows that EAAT is an effective intervention, which can complement the range of different therapeutic actions taken to deal with such type of disorders.
