NARD, Milena Bertollo et al. Social representations of the psychologist for young students. CES Psicol [online]. 2014, vol.7, n.2, pp.78-95. ISSN 2011-3080.

This research studied the Social Representations (SR) of the psychologist for high school students. It consisted in two phases: The first stage was carried out under the structural perspective, where a questionnaire was administrated to 61 students (42 girls and 19 boys) with the inductive term "psychologist". The second stage used the processual perspective. Focal groups of 9 students (8 girls and 1 boy) were conducted. The evocation questions were processed by EVOC software, whereas the other questions were addressed by the use of Thematic Analysis. The data analysis has demonstrated the term help as the central core of the representation. The focal groups evidenced new perceptions about the psychologist, and the help element was confirmed. It was emphasized the importance of affective interactions, feelings and affections in the construction of SR.
