The aim of this article is to conduct an analysis of scientific production in Organizational Behavior (OB) based on the leading Brazilian periodicals and annals of (EnANPAD). Altogether, 185 published articles in periodicals were analyzed and 696 in EnANPAD from 2001 to 2010. The analyses were based on surveys of the methodological approaches and procedures employed. The results obtained made it possible to set out the boundaries of the field of CO and characterize its range of objectives. They also established that the academic production of CO in Brazil has its own identity and highlights issues of a macro kind, such as culture and organizational learning, although there is evidence that the field encompasses a wide variety of areas. With regard to methodological factors, a qualitative approach is found to be predominant and some stress is laid on methodological weaknesses. At the same time, it should be underlined that the field has grown in recent years and has witnessed an increase in the range of research strategies and the employment of more sophisticated techniques for data analysis.
