Modus operandi da produção científica da Educação Física: uma análise das revistas e suas veiculações. Revista da Educação Física, Maringá, v. 23, n. 1, p. 20-35, mar. 2012.  e- 1983-3083http://repositorio.bc.ufg.br/handle/ri/20603The area of Physical Education in Brazil has continually and emphatically incorporated the research practice, which brings together its own contemporary scientific method, especially the publication of the main results in scientific journals. To comprehend how this process has been developed as well as its consequences to the Physical Education area, the present study investigated the publication of the knowledge produced in eight Brazilian journals of the area published in the year 2008. The analysis was based on Bourdieu (2009) and the results demonstrate that it is an area on its own development. Moreover, the results also indicate that this area of research is producing its own modus operandi based on the dichotomy of the hard and light sciences, still reproducing the internal logic of its original areas and indicating theories with little power of refraction and retranslation to the Physical Education area.porAcesso Abertohttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/Comunicação e divulgação científicaCiênciaMedidasMétodos e teoriasScientific communication and diffusionMeasurementsMethods and theoriesScienceArtigohttps://doi.org/10.4025/reveducfis.v23i1.12551
