Psychology and Phenomenology: A field of interlocution in constant transformation

Abstract

The contribution of Phenomenology to research and the practice of Psychology in Brazil stems from the effort of many researchers whose scientific production in the form of articles and books have been enriching Phenomenology over the years. Specifically in the last decade, the phenomenological research field in Brazil developed significantly, based on the higher number of publications relating Psychology and Phenomenology, the set of research groups registered at the Conselho Nacional de Desenvolvimento Científico e Tecnológico (CNPq, National Council for Scientific and Technological Development) (about 50), and the number of researchers who link their studies directly to Phenomenology (about 577 according to a recente survey).
