ZAMBENEDETTI, Gustavo and SIDOSKI, Vanessa. Modulations between Psychology, public health and rural contexts. Estud. psicol. (Natal) [online]. 2021, vol.26, n.1, pp.82-93. ISSN 1413-294X. https://doi.org/10.22491/1678-4669.20210009.
This research aimed to understand how rural contexts modulate the way of looking and acting of psychologists linked to SUS in municipalities in a Health Region of Paraná. The methodology was guided by the institutionalist perspective, in the convergence between cartography and institutional analysis. For the analysis, interviews with 16 psychologists / those working in public health services in the nine municipalities of the 4th Health Region of Paraná were considered. The results were presented and discussed along three analytical axes: rural contexts: territories (not) seen; The recognition of rural contexts: perceptual modulations; The work of psychologists: modulations of performance in rural contexts. We affirm the need to recognize rural contexts, their specificities and heterogeneity, providing an exercise in modulating psychological practices in the territory.
