JURAS, Mariana Martins; SAID, Amanda Pinheiro; TUSI, Michelle Moreira de Abreu  y  HAMU, Eneida Maria França e Silva. In(ter)dependence between judicial decisions and psychosocial reports in criminal courts: a qualitative analysis. Pesqui. prát. psicossociais [online]. 2016, vol.11, n.2, pp. 427-442. ISSN 1809-8908.

The psychosocial report, an essential document to the establishment of an interdisciplinary approach among psychological, social and legal areas, is the main way to advisor judges on legal procedures that require a social and psychological analysis. Throughout a qualitative analysis of 178 courts' decisions from the year 2010 to 2012, this research aimed to verify the acceptance or not of suggestions or reference of risk in psychosocial reports that evaluated domestic violent situations against children, adolescents and women. The qualitative analysis of the court's decisions resulted in three different meaning areas: 1. Victim's intention to carry on the legal procedure is central to the court's decision, 2. The psychosocial work aims to make psychological monitoring or treatment of the victims and their families, 3. The psychosocial work aims to advise the process of making a legal decision. Continued investment in the interdisciplinary between psychosocial and legal areas, based on the paradigms of the Human Rights, social networks and redress of the victims, is strongly suggested.
