In 1962, the training and profession of psychologist were legislated in Brazil from the establishment of the Law 4.119/62. However, this process  lasted for approximately ten years because of controversies between different actors involved with the area. This research describes and analyzes texts linked to Psychology published in Ciência e Cultura, one of the main Brazilian scientific journals, at the time. The research timeframe comprehends the 1950's and the 1960's, period of the legalization aforementioned. It is characterized as History of Present Time, anchored in the History of Psychology and History of Science. Ciência e Cultura has a Psychology section since its first number (1949) in which there are constant publications whose frequency increased after the establishment of the training and profession of psychologist, in the country. In addition to this, the number of published articles on Psychology is much smaller compared to the number of its abstracts. Among the authors, there was a slight predominance of the female gender, and considering the institutional affiliations, there was a high incidence of manuscripts from the Southeast region of Brazil. Therefore, it was possible to identify and analyze what was produced and had circulated, on Psychology, in the country, as a vector of Brazilian science in the period.
