Abstract

Social Motivation Theory has become a leading theory and model to explain patients with Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD)’s behaviors and several studies using neuroimaging methods have provided biological and neural evidence to support the theory. Based on the existing literature research, this paper overviews the theoretical research on ASD social motivation. This literature review investigated some of the most recent studies related to and integrated the results and the findings. After research, the results show that most of the findings were in line with each other and showed the hypoactivation in ASD children’s NAc.
