A psychology in dialogue with its testemunhos: a paradoxical journey through quantitative methods Una psicología en diálogo con sus testemunhos: un viaje paradójico a través de métodos cuantitativos

Abstract

The aim of this work is to present a comprehension of the modes of dialogue between Psychology and its subjects. To understand these multiple process it will present a short history of this dialogue thought through two no-epistemological models: the Actor Network Theory from Bruno Latour, Annemarie Mol and John Law, and the Political Epistemology from Isabelle Stengers and Vinciane Despret. Considering the different psychologies as an ontological device of subjectivity production, an empirical research will be present trying to analyze the presence of psychologized subjectivities between high school students in Rio de Janeiro (Brazil). Concluding, the results of this research will be discussed, considering the ontological politics related to the methodological choices.
