Resumo: A current problem in scientific knowledge production is the rationality myth in research practice. On the other hand, when considering the concrete man concept supporting the idea that man plays an active role in the world, one cannot disregard the unavoidable emotional dimension. In this sense, one must take into account that reason is indivisible from emotion in the knowledge process. As a contribution to organizational studies this paper introduces a methodological discussion on historical and social/cultural psychology, mainly focusing on man and knowledge production concepts as approached in social studies. The main argument in this paper is that emotion is positive in social research practice. After a theoretical and conceptual discussion, an experiment is shown, carried out in a mental hospital by one of the authors, empirically revealing how scientific knowledge can be built on the researcher’s emotion and implication.

Nesse sentido, é preciso considerar a ideia da indissociabilidade entre razão e emoção no processo de conhecer. O presente trabalho traz a contribuição da psicologia sociocultural e histórica para o debate metodológico dos estudos organizacionais, particularmente quanto ao problema das concepções de homem e da produção do conhecimento na pesquisa social. O principal argumento, neste artigo, é o da positividade da emoção na prática de pesquisa social. Após a discussão teórica e conceitual, apresentamos o relato da experiência de um dos autores, que desenvolveu uma pesquisa em um hospital psiquiátrico, revelando empiricamente a construção do saber científico pela implicação e emotividade do pesquisador.Escola Brasileira de Administração Pública e de Empresas da Fundação Getulio Vargas2011-01-01info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.fgv.br/cadernosebape/article/view/5439Cadernos EBAPE.BR; Vol. 9 No. Special (2011) - Teaching and Research in Administration; 488 a 504Cadernos EBAPE.BR; Vol. 9 Núm.
