The practice of documentary research has been a challenge for several areas of knowledge, because to perform it is necessary to go beyond the document and its organized set. The practice of using the documentation depends on certain conditions for its appropriation as an object. To enable the approximation between Psychology and information area through the appropriation of records, the general characterization of scientific production that marks the epistemological construction of the production of graduate studies in Psychology of the Catholic University of Brasília is described: The identification and organization of scientific production for the formation of the psychologist at the more advanced level and the quantitative and qualitative analysis of works (theses and dissertations), its annual distribution and its advisors in 16 years, where some epistemological approximations of a theoretical-ontological nature are identified. For this initial research, 252 studies produced by students of the Graduate Program in Psychology were analyzed. The work is part of a broader investigation that proposes as a challenge a more assertive planning in training based on strategies for the use of documentation and skills for its dissemination and use.  To better elucidate the issue, we will address the role of the document in understanding reality and its insertion in the training and clinical practice of the psychologist. In other time we will show how documentation relates to human subjectivity and its role in information architecture. Thus, it is possible to give greater visibility to documentation and its role in integrated research of Psychology and Information Science, contributing relevant information in this approximation.
