Abstract

This article presents a literature review on reports about people with autism in research carried out in the Education, Psychology, Medicine and Nursing’s areas. Twenty two articles were collected in the SciELO database, between the years 2008 and 2021, using the keywords autism and interviews. Data were analyzed using the Content Analysis technique (BARDIN, 2016), with the help of ATLAS.ti software. The categories raised, diagnosis and health; education; and family relationships, were discussed from the theoretical-methodological perspectives of Vygotsky (2003) and Bronfenbrenner (1996). Such analysis made it possible to relate personal and social issues, based on the socio-historical and bioecological relationships that involve the lives of subjects with autism. The results show the interference between the insufficient supply of services and social support policies and the development of these people; the importance of the school and the deficient teacher training; and the repercussions of this development in family routines, especially in the life of the mother figure.
