CARVALHO, Renata Guimarães de et al. Analysis of social networks in the field of work psychology: methodological reflections. Psicol. Conoc. Soc. [online]. 2021, vol.11, n.2, pp.99-113. Epub 01-Ago-2021. ISSN 1688-7026. https://doi.org/10.26864/pcs.v11.n2.7.
This article aims to describe and analyze methods of research in work psychology that applied the analysis of social networks (ARS) to identify relationships formed between workers in their work contexts. The methods used in these investigations are essentially qualitative, in conjunction with a quantitative analysis of matrix data, making use of interviews and observation for data collection. All the surveys carried out the mapping of self-centered networks using the naming technique. The analysis of the interviews was performed through content analysis and matrix data by the UCINET program. Research has shown the possibility of variations in data collection, such as the use of photographs, the Social Shield Diagram and different ways of applying the name generator. The ARS proved to be a versatile method compatible with work contexts and a viable alternative for studies in work psychology.
