Resumo: Psychology is holding a deep identity crisis. This situation seems to be more serious in Brazil, since graduatecourses tend to overestimate practical aspects and neglect the basic foundations of psychology. Thus, it is created a longdistance as well as a tension between science and profession which is pernicious to psychologist's professional formation. Themain purpose of this study was to investigate the influence of Popper's thought on Brazilian psychology by analysing paperspublished between 1986 and 1995 in Arquivos Brasileiros de Psicologia and Psicologia: Teoria e Pesquisa. The main resultswere: A very small number of papers with bibliographical references to Popper, a superficial citation of his work and anabsence of discussions on the implications of his philosophy of science for psychology. These findings seem to corroborate thehypothesis that there is a lack of metascientific discussions in Brazilian psychology.

No Brasil, essa situação parece ser ainda mais grave, uma vez que os cursos de graduação tendem a supervalorizar a prática e negligenciar os fundamentos básicos da psicologia. Com isso, cria-se um distanciamento e uma certa tensão entre a ciência e a profissão, perniciosa para a formação profissional do psicólogo. O objetivo do presente trabalho foi investigar a influência do pensamento de Popper na psicologia brasileira, através da análise dos artigos publicados, entre 1986 e 1995, nos Arquivos Brasileiros de Psicologia e na Psicologia: Teoria e Pesquisa. Entre os principais achados constatou-se um número muito reduzido de artigos com referências a Popper, uma citação superficial de sua obra e uma ausência de discussões sobre as implicações concretas de sua filosofia da ciência para a psicologia. Esses resultados parecem corroborar a hipótese de que há uma carência de discussões metacientíficas na psicologia brasileira.Instituto de Psicologia - Universidade de Brasília2012-09-12info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.unb.br/index.php/revistaptp/article/view/17316Psicologia: Teoria e Pesquisa; Vol. 14 No. 2: Revista Psicologia: teoria e pesquisa; 111-119Psicologia: Teoria e Pesquisa; Vol. 14 Núm. 2: Revista Psicologia: teoria e pesquisa; 111-119Psicologia: Teoria e Pesquisa; Vol. 14 No. 2: Revista Psicologia: teoria e pesquisa; 111-119Psicologia: Teoria e Pesquisa; v. 14 n. 2: Revista Psicologia: teoria e pesquisa; 111-1191806-34460102-3772reponame:Psicologia (Universidade de Brasília.
