BERALDO, Guilherme de Souza and FERREIRA NETO, João. Undergraduate scientific research in psychology training: a literature review . Psicol. rev. (Belo Horizonte) [online]. 2017, vol.23, n.3, pp.1034-1050. ISSN 1677-1168. https://doi.org/10.5752/P.1678-9563.2017v23n3p1034-1050.
The aim of this article was to carry out a literature review about undergraduate scientific research (USR) in the training of psychologists. We searched the databases of the Biblioteca Virtual de Psicologia Brasil (BVS-Psi Brasil), Periódicos Capes and Banco de Teses Capes. Few materials associate Psychology training and USR. Thus, we gathered papers from other areas in order to present the aspects analyzed in other undergraduate courses and to discuss the scope of this teaching tool. We present the PIBIC-CNPq in its objectives, the largest institutional scholarship program of USR in the country and reference as a model of organization of this modality. The material gathered indicated potentialities in the training of researchers and in the development of global skills and abilities, being able to reach those indicated by the NCG for Psychology. In addition, we emphasize the need for this theme further researched, given the small number of investigations in the area of Psychology.
