ABSTRACT
A formação e a profissão de psicólogo no Brasil foram regulamentas em 1962, com a promulgação da Lei n. 4119. Entretanto, a tramitação ocorreu por aproximadamente dez anos, em decorrência de debates e tensões entre diferentes atores sociais envolvidos com a área. Esta pesquisa objetivou descrever e analisar produções vinculadas à Psicologia, publicadas em um dos principais periódicos científicos brasileiros à época, Ciência e Cultura, no entorno temporal da promulgação da referida Lei (1949-1969). A pesquisa caracteriza-se como História do Tempo Presente, ancorada na História da Psicologia e na História das Ciências. O periódico analisado possui uma seção de Psicologia desde seu primeiro número (1949) em que observamos constantes publicações que, após a regulamentação da profissão, sofreram um aumento. Além disto, o número de artigos publicados sobre Psicologia é muito menor se comparado ao número de resumos científicos. Entre os autores, identificamos uma leve predominância do gênero feminino. Quanto às vinculações institucionais, verificamos uma alta incidência de materiais produzidos na região Sudeste. Foi possível identificar e analisar o que era produzido sobre Psicologia, e que aparecia em um influente vetor de circulação da ciência brasileira, no período. (AU)
In 1962, the training and profession of psychologist were legislated in Brazil from the establishment of the Law 4.119/62. However, this process lasted for approximately ten years because of controversies between different actors involved with the area. This research describes and analyzes texts linked to Psychology published in Ciência e Cultura, one of the main Brazilian scientific journals, at the time. The research timeframe comprehends the 1950's and the 1960's, period of the legalization aforementioned. It is characterized as History of Present Time, anchored in the History of Psychology and History of Science. Ciência e Cultura has a Psychology section since its first number (1949) in which there are constant publications whose frequency increased after the establishment of the training and profession of psychologist, in the country. In addition to this, the number of published articles on Psychology is much smaller compared to the number of its abstracts. Among the authors, there was a slight predominance of the female gender, and considering the institutional affiliations, there was a high incidence of manuscripts from the Southeast region of Brazil. Therefore, it was possible to identify and analyze what was produced and had circulated, on Psychology, in the country, as a vector of Brazilian science in the period. (AU)

Abstract Background: The emergent categorization involving paintings by renowned painters and their corresponding names was demonstrated by previous studies. However, the results of these studies suggest that the colors of the pictures may have played a preponderant role, obscuring other aspects of the stimuli that could be more directly related to the style of each painter. To verify this possibility, the present study used the same methodology of Ferreira et al. to investigate the establishment of emergent conditional relations between categories composed of black and white paintings and the names of their authors. Method: The procedure consisted of the training of relations between each of the ten paintings and an abstract picture, for each of the three painters Botticelli, Monet, and Picasso. Relations between each of the three abstract figures and the printed name of one of the painters were verified in sequence. Finally, tests of relations between five trained and five untrained paintings of each artist and the printed names were conducted. Results: The participants' performance suggests that the outcome was properly controlled by aspects pertinent to the paintings that belonged to each painter's category. Conclusions: The results reinforced the data obtained previously with colored pictures, suggesting that the process of emergent categorization involving artificial categories of paintings is robust. It also indicates possibilities for future investigations, for example, using stimuli of other artistic productions, such as sculpture and music.
