Gender and Sexuality: Analysis of Publications in the Journal Psicologia: Ciência e Profissão (1995-2019)

Abstract

The present study aims to analyze the publications on gender and sexuality in the journal Psicologia: Ciência e Profissão. An investigation was carried out using the search tool of the magazine itself using the terms “gender” or “sexuality”. The final bank included in the analysis consisted of 70 articles published between 1995 and 2019. Descending Hierarchical Classification and Similitude Analysis were made with the corpus formed by the abstracts of the articles using the Iramuteq software. 340 text segments (ST) were analyzed, in which 81.76% of the total (278 UCEs) was retained, generating 5 classes - Sexuality and Development; Intervention Studies; Critical Perspectives of Diversity; Violence Against Women and Empirical Research. It was noticed the formation of two axes of research themes at different moments, one focused on discussions about gender and sexual diversity and the other related to a perspective of gender and sexism disparities. Both were influenced by legal provisions in the period, such as laws and court decisions. Such legal positions were important to consolidate advances in equality policies and involved the field of knowledge and practices in Psychology that, in turn, tension these debates in Brazilian society.
