https://doi.org/10.24879/20150090010024Abstract
Pesquisas filosóficas e conceituais vêm sendo reiteradamente apontadas como necessárias na Psicologia, dada a caracterização da disciplina como excessivamente centrada no método e na coleta de dados empíricos. Em resposta a isso, ocorreu ao longo das últimas décadas o surgimento de uma nova área de pesquisa, a Psicologia Teórica e Filosófica. Com o objetivo de fornecer uma introdução a este campo, são destacados alguns dos principais periódicos, programas de pós-graduação e instituições que produzem conhecimento nesta vertente. Procurou-se delimitar o escopo e o objetivo da Psicologia Teórica e Filosófica. Foram revisados diferentes autores que procuraram estabelecer quais as suas principais atividades, para isso foram elencados alguns exemplos de pesquisas importantes, e concluiu-se a relevância do fomento deste tipo de pesquisa para a Psicologia como um todo.Downloads
