Abstract

COELHO JUNIOR, Francisco Antonio  and  BORGES-ANDRADE, Jairo Eduardo. Perception of organizational culture: An empirical analysis of scientific Brazilian journals. PsicoUSF [online]. 2004, vol.9, n.2, pp. 191-199. ISSN 1413-8271.

The present text aims at surveying and revising the principal recent national empirical studies, between 1996 and 2001, on the perception of organizational culture. The method has included the sistematic analysis of scientific journals from the Business Administration and Psychology areas. The results have indicated that the research on perception of culture uses, in general, qualitative methods, with emphasis on case studies, adopting, including, diffuse concepts of culture organizational. The themes under study are ample and non complementary. It is concluded that the area has significant theoretical and methodological limitations, which leave gaps towards the full development of the field of study.

Keywords : Perception of organizational culture; Organizational culture; Organizational behavior.
