Abstract(s)
O objetivo deste estudo é analisar como a metodologia qualitativa tem sido aceite e reconhecida na área
da Psicologia. Especificamente, pretende-se analisar as dissertações de mestrado realizadas num curso
de mestrado em Psicologia da Educação, entre os anos 2010 e 2018, numa universidade pública
portuguesa, e que estavam disponíveis online, no repositório digital institucional. A busca no repositório
decorreu em duas fases, em fevereiro e em dezembro de 2018, mediante os descritores definidos.
Encontraram-se 82 dissertações de mestrado, sendo 63 (77%) estudos quantitativos e 19 (23%) estudos
com recurso a metodologia qualitativa [8 (10%) estudos qualitativos e 11 (13%) estudos mistos]. Nos
estudos qualitativos verificou-se diversidade em termos de temática e de paradigmas adotados. Nos
estudos mistos, vários eram caracterizados como estudos de caso e combinavam formas distintas de
recolha de dados. Os dados permitem verificar um predomínio do recurso à metodologia quantitativa nas
dissertações de mestrado produzidas.
The purpose of this paper is to analyse how qualitative research has been accepted and recognised in the area of Psychology. Specifically, is intended to analyse the master's dissertations carried out under a master's degree course in Educational Psychology, between 2010 and 2018, in a Portuguese public university, which were available online, in the institutional digital repository. The search in the repository was carried out in two phases, using the defined descriptors, in February and in December of 2018. There were 82 master's dissertations, 63 (77%) were quantitative studies and 19 (23%) were studies using qualitative methodology [8 (10%) qualitative studies and 11 (13%) mixed studies]. In the qualitative studies there was diversity in the themes and paradigms adopted. In the mixed studies, several of them were characterised as case studies and combined distinct forms of data collection. The data allow to verify a predominance of the quantitative methodology in the master’s dissertations produced.
