Abstract

SCORSOLINI-COMIN, Fabio; BAIRRAO, José Francisco Miguel Henriques  and  SANTOS, Manoel Antônio dos. With the licence of Oxalá: the ethics in the ethnopsychological research in religious communities. Rev. SPAGESP [online]. 2017, vol.18, n.2, pp.86-99. ISSN 1677-2970.

The aim of this study is to discuss the specificities of ethnopsychological research in the religious communities based on Resolution 510/2016 of the National Health Council. Research in terreiros involves methods that allow the possibility of photographing, making videos and audiotaping of rituals, médiumistic consultations and other activities that take place in terreiros, as well as participant observations, interviews with consultants, mediums in possession trance, as well as their different followers. From the new draft, the process of clarification of participants must not necessarily go through a formal term. This alternative contemplates the possibility that the authorization for the research (involving different methods of data collection) will pass through the consent of the person in charge of the community, not necessarily through the written way, in order to value the priest's "word", given as a seal of agreement and makes it possible for the community, in fact, to open it self to more direct action of the researcher and his interventions. Considering these specificities guarantees respect for the ethical dimension of the subject and his community of reference.

Keywords : ethics; ethnopsychology; umbanda; candomblé.
