Logan Wincott

The aim of this literature review is to better understand attitudes, perceptions, and ethical concerns around the use of neuromodulation as a treatment mechanism for adolescents. The literature review yielded six peer-reviewed publications that met the inclusion criteria. Overall, attitudes and perceptions of neuromodulation techniques were optimistic. Examples of ethical concerns included adolescent assent and safety. In conclusion, areas identified as in need for future research were long-term effects and effectiveness of neuromodulation on adolescents.
