Abstract
Universities fulfill an important part of their social functions, such as conducting research and producing new knowledge and technologies, through research carried out during postgraduate education and scientific research by faculty members. In this context, the contribution of postgraduate research in the field of autism to the field is important. The general purpose of this study is to examine the postgraduate thesis studies on autism, conducted in the institutes in Northern Cyprus universities. This study is a content analysis review for postgraduate studies in the field of autism. The data were analyzed through content analysis. Fourteen (14) postgraduate theses were reached in Northern Cyprus universities, and 13 theses were examined. Theses were accessed by visiting the libraries of 3 universities. The obtained data were analyzed after the content analysis table was created. Despite the increase in research on autism in recent years, it has been observed that there are not many graduate thesis studies in the field.
Keywords: Autism; content analysis; disorder; theses.

Open access to the results of publicly funded research is of huge value, offering significant social and economic benefits. The open access publishing model, defined by the Berlin Agreement in 2003, improves the pace, efficiency, and value of research to society. By its very nature, it improves the visibility of authors' work and enables better scholarly exchange, and therefore, the potential impact of that work.
By eliminating the barriers that block the free distribution of knowledge, open access enables scientists to collaborate better, innovate faster, and deliver the solutions we need for healthy lives on a healthy planet.
