ERAUSQUIN, Cristina et al. Figures of psychologists situated in communitie s of practice and learning: diversity and changes of mental model s in future psychologists building professional competences. Anu. investig. [online]. 2007, vol.14, pp.00-00. ISSN 1851-1686.

The study analyses the figures of psychologists that students of Psychology at Buenos Aires University have built, at the beginning and at the end of Undergraduated Professional and Research Apprenticeship, in 2005. The aim is to appreciate the heterogeneity and diversity of experiences, the tensions and the changes in mental models of future psychologists in training. In Socio- Cultural Frame it is important for learning the guided participation in communities of practice and the involvement in processes of internalization and externalization for the appropriation of mediating instruments and the construction of professional competences. Significant axes are settled of a multi-dimensional unit of analysis that entwines networks, individuals and devices, focusing shifts, strengths and critical points in the process of becoming professional, in each stage of psychologists work. Data show enhancement in: perspectivism, interpersonal and psycho-social wefts of complex problems, inter-agencies, joint with other sciences, units of analysis in problems and interventions.

Keywords : Appropriation; Units of analysis; Shifts; Becoming professional.
