Abstract: This research constitutes an experimental work with aim implement the comparative analysis offshore perceptual-cognitive and motor development in students with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). A total of 40 students participated in this research, issued in three groups, an experimental group made up students with ASD (n= 16), a normotypical group (n= 15) and a group identified of other needs (n= 9), of different age ranges. Study analyze six variables: three perceptive- cognitive variables and three motor variables, what analyzed through non-parametric Kruskal-Wallis Test. Results indicate there´re significant differences forwards study six variables, taking group way as distribution variable, according group type the participants belong; however, comparative data found are less homogeneous regarding different age intervals if age used as distribution variable. Correlations analysis between dimensional groups of cognitive variables, in relation to dimensional group of motor variables, show positive significant relational data found by Pearson correlation.
