DUGiDocsLa interdisciplinariedad en los artículos de comunicación de las revistas de salud pública de SCIELO
Text Complet
Communication should be an essential field
for public health, as its actions are often
communicative acts or interventions aimed
at health promotion. On the other hand,
all the authors studied maintain that one
of the characteristics of the public health
is interdisciplinarity. In this research we
asked ourselves to what extent the public
health publications insert articles in which
communication plays a leading role and
whether these articles are interdisciplinary.
This is an exploratory investigation, the
methodology of which is content analysis;
to carry it out, an automatic and manual
revision of the texts that have been submitted
to the study was carried out. The sample is
composed of all articles from the public health
journals (18) of the SCIELO platform between
2005 and 2015 (included). Of the total number of articles (19,886), those chosen were those
that the platform itself characterizes as’
communication’ (n=124), and of these, those
that were interdisciplinary (n=23). Among the
results, it is worth highlighting the low degree
of interdisciplinarity, which is manifested,
except in 3 cases, in a binary way, with the
most prevalent relationship being that of the
health, social and legal sciences; only in 6
articles there is interdisciplinarity between
the fields of health and communication. It
should also be noted that the majority of
senior researchers (52%) and collaborators
(48%) are in the health field and that
interdisciplinarity appears only in 9 journals,
with a concentration of articles in 1, Interface,
with 11
