Abstract
The study aims to analyze the concession of grants and the scientific production of grant holders of the National Council for Scientific and Technological Development (CNPq), in the Physical Education area, in the period of 2017-2020. The search for grant holders in the Physical Education area was obtained through the CNPq website. It accounted for the data of curriculum Lattes through software scriptLattes v8.10. We found that: a) the publication of papers increased during the analyzed period; b) high-level papers (A1, A2, and JCR) had steady growth; c) production of items not accounted for grant guidelines were static; d) there is partial renovation of grant holders. We concluded that grant holders have expanded their production and strengthened their metrics. However, it is necessary to constantly revise grant guidelines to minimize academic productivism.
