Grupos de pesquisa em representações sociais vinculados à área da Educação

Abstract

The research that gave rise to this review article aimed to identify the main thematic lines of research groups on social representations registered in the database of the Directory of Research Groups (DRG) of the National Council for Scientific and Technological Development (CNPq), whose collectives are linked to the educational area. This is an exploratory-documentary type of research, organized around the following phases: data capture and systematization, data categorization and analysis. The results point to education as one of the great areas of research production whose theoretical mark has turned to the Theory of Social Representations (SRT). Likewise, they point to the diversity of themes that have led the studies of the different groups identified in this research, whose bases encompass a diversity of objects in social representations.

Keywords: Social representations. Education. Research groups. CNPq.
