WORK PSYCHOLOGY AND PEOPLE MANAGEMENT: AN ANALYSIS OF PUBLICATIONS ON MANAGEMENT SUBSYSTEMS
Abstract
The objective of this study was to conduct a survey and analysis of scientific production in Psychology on Human Resources Management subsystems, thus establishing a reading of the current state of the art in this area, using Work and Organizational Psychology as an analytical basis. The research sought to analyze Brazilian scientific production, between 2010 and 2023, on management subsystems in the field of Work and Organizational Psychology. A total of 2,114 abstracts of articles present in databases such as Scielo, Lilacs and CAPES Journals were analyzed. Only 15 articles met the established criteria, highlighting the need for psychologists to participate as authors in the publications and, of these, none presented a significant relationship with the proposal of the Work Clinics. The methodology adopted was qualitative, focusing on bibliographic-exploratory review and content analysis. The results indicated a shortage of publications in the interface between Work Psychology and People Management, intensifying this shortage in relation to qualitative intervention approaches, suggesting hypotheses related to epistemological and structural limitations. Furthermore, the research reinforces the importance of a broader and more interdisciplinary performance of psychologists, highlighting the need to rethink professional training and integrate practices aimed at the health and subjectivity of workers.
