Abstract: Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) has been fundamental in the development process of autistic children, as it is a therapy that aims to improve the quality of life of these children through the teaching of new skills and behavior modification, working on the reinforcement of positive behaviors. In view of this, the objective of this article is to analyze the behavior of autistic children in the learning process, thus promoting a deeper knowledge about the subject in its main characteristics, for which the following question arises: what are the contributions of ABA therapy in the learning process of autistic children? This is a bibliographic research whose nature is qualitative, supported by authors who address the subject, published in journals that debate this subject in question, using Google Scholar as a search database, in the period between 2020 and 2024. As a sample, 5 studies were obtained for the analysis. The results showed positive deductions regarding the relevance of ABA and the possibility of developing more cognitive, behavioral and social skills, based on early diagnosis and intervention. It is considered that the ABA method is relevant, that is, through confidence, validation and the presence of positive results, as well as the data presented by researchers brought in the results of this article, the technique in question helps to broaden the cognitive horizons that belong to and perform the functions of cognitive neurodevelopment in children who have a diagnosis of ASD.
