Abstract

ABSTRACT This research aimed to analyse the use of Content Analysis (CA) in scientific publications by journals in area of Physical Education in Brazil. The method was exploratory and descriptive; and analysis was carried out in an empirical corpus of 222 articles published between 2007 and 2017. Main results suggested a growth in the use of that technique, i.e., being Laurence Bardin the principal reference, as well as low rate of explanation attributed to chosen methodological technique. Therefore, CA has gained space in Physical Education field throughout years, as research has presented its practice in a brief form and it has used software support into the stage of analysis, even though it shows low representativeness.
