Abstract

AQUINO, Cássio Adriano Braz de et al. Psychological appropriation of occupational health field: a systematic review. Estud. psicol. (Natal) [online]. 2017, vol.22, n.3, pp. 316-324. ISSN 1413-294X.  http://dx.doi.org/10.22491/1678-4669.20170032.

The appropriation routes of Occupational Health field by Psychology are investigated through a systematic review of 37 national papers in the period of 2010-2015, available in the Capes journals portal and in PePSIC database. "Occupational Health" and "Psychology" were used as descriptors. Production stability in the field of Occupational Health was observed, with emphasis on the use of research reports by means of qualitative methods and theoretical basis based on the perspective of studies and research on subjectivity and work. Regarding the types of appropriation of the category work by Psychology, it was possible to verify a concentration in social and clinical aspects with predominance of publications in the southeastern and southern regions of Brazil, focusing on research with health workers. The forms of appropriation of Psychology in the Occupational Health field are quite diverse, demanding a caution with interdisciplinarity and pointing to the expansion of the dialogue between mental health and occupational health.

Keywords : occupational health; psychology; work; scientific production.
