Introduction Interpersonal synchronization involves the alignment of behavioral, affective, physiological, and brain states during social interactions. It facilitates empathy, emotion regulation, prosocial commitment. Mental disorders characterized by interaction dysfunction, such as Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), Reactive Attachment (RAD), Social Anxiety (SAD), often exhibit atypical with others across multiple levels. With introduction “second-person” neuroscience perspective, our understanding interpersonal neural (INS) has improved, however, so far, it hardly impacted development novel therapeutic interventions. Methods To evaluate potential INS-based treatments for mental disorders, we performed two systematic literature searches identifying studies that directly target INS through neurofeedback (12 publications; 9 independent studies) or stimulation techniques (7 studies), following PRISMA guidelines. In addition, narratively review indirect manipulations biofeedback, hormonal We discuss ASD, RAD, SAD using a database search assess acceptability (4 neurostimulation in patients dysfunction. Results Although behavioral approaches, engaging eye contact cooperative actions, have been shown to be associated increased INS, little is known about long-term consequences Few proof-of-concept utilized techniques, like transcranial direct current neurofeedback, showing feasibility preliminary evidence interventions can boost synchrony connectedness. Yet, optimal protocols parameters are still undefined. For SAD, far no randomized controlled trial proven efficacy intervention although general methods seem well accepted these patient groups. Discussion Significant work remains translate into effective disorders. Future research should focus on mechanistic insights technological advancements, rigorous design standards.

Neurofeedback allows individuals to monitor and self-regulate their brain activity, potentially improving human function. Beyond the traditional electrophysiological approach using primarily electroencephalography, haemodynamics measured with functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) more recently, near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS) have been used (haemodynamic-based neurofeedback), particularly improve spatial specificity of neurofeedback. Over recent years, especially fNIRS has attracted great attention because it offers several advantages over fMRI such as increased user accessibility, cost-effectiveness mobility—the latter being most distinct feature fNIRS.
