RESUMO

This paper intends to investigate the psychodiagnosis done for psychologists from Vale do Paraíba in São Paulo state. We aim to characterize the way this is developed in the area as regards the model used, the target to its realization, theoretical reference to base, places of development, training offered for the graduation courses here and the leveI of the knowledge and the engagement of the professionals in the search for new discussion and models of performance with the objective to improve this experience for their c1ients. As a descriptive research, we wor1ked with 767 (seven hundred, sixty-seven) psychologists in 28 (twenty-eight) cities from the area, selected by probabilistic and systematic sample. Data was gathered using a questionnaire, using the same mo deI for psychologists and psychologist-professors. The data gathered was analyzed in quantitative and qualitative way usmg statistics methods, trying to characterize what typical is in the population, observing the distribution of the element in relation of some variable. The results characterize the psychodiagnosis and the psychologist who develop it as the following: The great part is women, with more than eleven years of graduation and professional experience. They invest in improving their graduation through specialization courses, generally not directed to psychodiagnosis. The mo deI of the pychodiagnosis; which is defeloped is characterized to be individual form private offices more than lnstitutions. ln this context, it is applied in individual form mainly directed to the infatile public. The psychodiagnosis is frequent1y used for this professional, applying it generally when he receives a new c1ient, considering it a very important resource to the psychological practice. We aim with this resource application: get description and comprehension of the c1ient s personality, evaluate the problem in a deeper dimension, formulate recommendation an guiding, prevention, prognostic and promote changes in the c1ient s dynamics. The psychologist feels discontented with the diagnosis practice to observe that at the end of the work, the client just received infonnation about the problem but doesn t assimilate them. For this reason, the psychologist defends modifications in the diagnosis practice, delimitating the aspects that need to be reviewed: the objectives of the work, the way of the relationship psychologist-client. We conclude that, although the psychologists from Vale do Paraíba learned about the newest models of psychodiagnosis -mainly the one studied during the research: the interventive psychodiagnosis- and delimitate in a this knowledge is just the theoretical sphere once they don t do the investiments needed to tum into clinic practice. This way, the psychodiagnosis developed for the psychologist from Vale do Paraíba is still based ori traditions models of acting
