This article presents a literature review on reports about people with autism in research carried out in the areas of Education, Psychology, Medicine, and Nursing. We collected twenty-two articles in the SciELO database between 2008 and 2021, using the keywords autism and interviews. We analyzed the data using the Content Analysis technique (BARDIN, 2016) with the help of ATLAS.ti software. We discussed the categories raised, diagnosis and health; education; and family relationships from the theoretical-methodological perspectives of Vygotsky (2003) and Bronfenbrenner (1996). Such an 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 these people's development; the importance of school and the inadequate teacher training; and the repercussions of this development in family routines, especially in the life of the mother figure
