The relevance of the study is due to the importance of studying the psychological factors of educational socialization of children with autism spectrum disorders. In connection with the increase in diagnosed cases of autism and the awareness of society that the full development and adaptation of such children requires not only individual work, but also social changes. The study used the standardized methodology of the International Autism Diagnostic Methodology (Ados II). As a result of the study of the deficit of non-verbal communicative behavior, it was found that children do not look their parents in the eye when they ask them about something, do not pay attention to adults, do not show emotions and do not understand the manifestations of emotions of people around them. It was determined that children with autism do not know how to correctly fulfill the requests of adults, show inattention and lack of ability to imitate the actions of adults. It was established that children do not direct their speech to other people during communication, use phrases and words stereotypically. We explain these results by referring to the theory of intentions. We conclude that the study of nonverbal communicative behavior deficits showed that most of the children studied show signs of autism during communication: they rarely look into the eyes; rarely understand the facial expressions of other people; sometimes do not turn around when adults address them; often use the adult's hand as a tool to get an object; often use simple gestures to attract the attention of adults. The study of autism in children showed that most of the children studied are at risk and show a tendency to autism. The analysis of autism in children showed that, according to the studied modules, which include: communication and interaction, phrasal and fluent speech, the indicator "autism" prevails in the studied children.
