Methods: an integrative review of the literature with scientific papers published from 2012 to 2017 indexed in Periódico Capes, Science Direct, and PudMed; combined descriptors: autism AND emotion AND software; autism AND emotion recognition AND software. Inclusion criterion was the use of software related to emotion recognition in children and teenagers with ASD, up to 18 years old. Review papers and those using robots were excluded.
