Work Psychology, Performance Sport, Labor PrecariousnessAbstract
The performance sport has been transformed over time into a highly skilled, demanding and sometimes perverse market. In this same sense, it is possible to notice, in different media channels, the romanticization around the athletes' achievements, hiding the exploitation of painful and often precarious work. Given the historical contribution of work psychology in different work scenarios, we wonder how this field of knowledge has been participating in work and sports. Therefore, we seek to map if work and sport are being problematized in the Work Psychology, in scientific scope, through the articles indexed in the Scielo and Capes Periodicals Portal, with no defined date. There were a total of 120 articles mapped in the Scielo database and 3 articles in the Capes Journal Portal. Of these, at Scielo, only 6 were linked to psychology journals, but none of them focused on work and sports. Already the Portal of Periodicals Capes brought 3 articles that had adherence to the issue in question, only one of them published in a journal of Psychology. Thus, we need the occupational psychology's appropriation of this territory for the co-construction of agendas that make it possible to give these workers the necessary status of unregulated work and subjected to different forms of domination and manipulation.
