Summary:Autism is a spectrum disorder whose most common characteristics are seen to be repetitive behavior, challenging social behavior, and difficulty in communication and speech. Many medically proven reasons seem to be prominent causes of autism but there is no definite treatment that has come in to light for people with autism. Autistic people predominantly face challenges related to language and communication. It's not that they are not able to speak but they find it quite difficult to speak and communicate. The present paper shows the autism spectrum disorder in focus on the language and behavioral impairments that children with autism face. 2 groups of perfectly healthy and autistic individuals are taken in the study and aims to shed light on the difference in behavior in the two groups. The study highlights the behavioral impressions of autistic adult individuals. The results showed that autistic people are entirely different from normal people in terms of factors such as compensation, masking, and assimilation making them placed among the categories where they are needed to be treated under special care.
