Abstract

BATISTA DA SILVA, Marcos Antonio; AZEVEDO, Cleomar; PICANCO JUNIOR, Álvaro da Cruz  and  DE LIMA SALGADO, Valter. Contemporary research in Educational Psychology. Cienc. Psicol. [online]. 2019, vol.13, n.1, pp.82-94. ISSN 1688-4094.  https://doi.org/10.22235/cp.v13i1.1811.

Abstract: The objective of this study is to undertake a systematic review of the academic production and theses of a Graduate Program in Educational Psychology in the research area "Educational Processes in the Social and Political Context" of an Educational Center in the State of São Paulo, Brazil. The research was carried out using the databases of the portal of the Program and the portal of Capes - Catalog of Theses and Dissertations, from 2008 to 2016. 143 studies were encountered and 56 were selected for analysis of the proposed research area. In this way, we elaborated an overview of the research carried out with respect to the number of productions, topics, subtopics, keywords and theoretical-methodological contributions. The realization of this systematic review allowed for a panorama that determined that the majority of academic studies in the educational field are anchored in cultural-historical theory and social representations. We observed a hegemony of qualitative research, with references to Educational Psychology and human development, but no discussion of inequalities in education with respect to ethnic-racial issues.

Keywords : Educational Psychology; dissertations; educational processes; postgraduate studies; learning.
