- Abstract
The training of psychologists, their professionalization and regulation of Psychology are recurrent themes of research and debates in Brazil. Therefore, we aim to identify and characterize conditions in the scientific-professional field of Psychology involved in the process of regulation of the profession between the 1940s and 1950s. Methodologically, this research operates in between Social History of Psychology and History of the Present Time. The primary sources were first and foremost those present in the Law No. 4,119/62’s legislative process. The results indicate the existence of typical conditions of scientific-professional communities (e.g., societies, journals, professional practice, etc.) before the aforementioned regulation. Such conditions were aligned to the national “modernization” project with its applications and the training of “specialists” in Psychology. Thus, one would see that, for the profession and training to be legislated, part of the necessary conditions for its existence were already present in the country.
