Successful communication is substantially crucial for better social life in all contexts. Unfortunately, the process of communication in medical settings and healthcare is challenging, especially when communicating with patients who are affected by cognitive communicative disorders including people with Autism Spectrum Disorders. This paper aims to address the difficulties and the different encumbrances related to autism and communication in the Algerian context. It attempts to evaluate the effectiveness of communication interventions in children with ASD, and look for reliable methods to help families promote their children's communication abilities. The current research is a case study of a six-year-old child with ASD, in addition to the participants involved; his caregivers, parents, escorts, and the speech therapist. The study shows that the child suffers from language impairments that are typical of autistic children's verbal repertoire: lexical, grammatical, morphological, and syntactic impairments that lead to a failure in the communicative task. The analysis of the data indicates that patients with ASD suffer also from different extra-linguistic problems which can be diminished through successful social interaction and effective therapeutic interventions.\u003Cbr>Keywords: Autism, communication, language, caregiver, interventions. |\n| --- |\n| *Corresponding author.

It is the fastest-growing developmental neurobiological condition in the world.  \nCommunicative barriers and language loss are among the early noticeable symptoms of ASD. They constitute areal intercultural challenge for the patients and their caregivers. According to American Psychiatric Association (2013) , speech difficulties, different codes of communication, stereotyping, and the lack of cultural awareness are the main factors that allude to poor health service delivery and poor outcomes. Additionally, and  \naccording to the American Psychiatric Society (1994) , individuals with ASD exhibit developmental deficits in communication, in expressive and receptive language, social interaction, and also in behavioral skills. Furthermore, the American Psychological Association, states that atypical communication and social behaviors are typically the first warning signs of autism . These disturbances can be severe, with between 30 to 50% of people with ASD failing to develop speech and language skills that are adequate for normal communication. Research consistently indicates that children with autism express significant identifiable delays in language and communication development compared to other neurotypical children (Weismer et al. , 2010) .  \nAfr Educ Res J 688  \nIn other words, the communicative disabilities associated with the disease present a serious puzzling issue that may moan and groan on the part of the patients and their caregivers (family members, nursing staff, doctors and physicians) . Moreover, the communication challenges with individuals affected by ASD could be increasingly more complicated when thereis a lack of effective and satisfactory intervention strategies.  \nAccordi","cbCaiuEBukq4wn4g","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaiuEBukq4wn4g","pdf",295814,"English","# Abstract\n# Introduction\n## Autism spectrum disorder and communicative deficits\n## Communication concept and definitions\n## Communicative competence and behavioral basis","[{\"question\":\"What communication challenges are linked to Autism Spectrum Disorder in this study?\",\"answer\":\"The study highlights marked deficits in social interaction and communication, including early communicative barriers and language loss.
