SOUZA, Laura Vilela e and SCORSOLINI-COMIN, Fabio. Meanings about the Psychologist at Social Assistance Service in The Scientific Literature. Estud. pesqui. psicol. [online]. 2020, vol.20, n.1, pp.53-72. ISSN 1808-4281. https://doi.org/10.12957/epp.2020.50790.
Based on social constructionism theory, the objective of this narrative review study was to understand the meanings of the psychologist who work at the Social Care Referral Centers (CRAS) published in the scientific literature, as well as to analyze this production. By a search in the data bases SciELO, LILACS, PePSIC and Google Academic between the years of 2009 and 2017, 43 studies were identified. Most of them have been published in journals such as Psicologia & Sociedade and Psicologia: Ciência e Profissão, by authors from the Minas Gerais and Rio Grande do Norte states. These empirical studies bring interviews with psychologists about their work in CRAS, as well as analysis of their interventions. Literature is unified by suggesting a professional practice aligned with solid social and political engagement, promoting interventions that are opposed to traditional clinical models, focusing on the individual and the pathology, expanding the possibilities of the psychologist as an agent of social transformation.
