Abstract

The objective of this study is to determine the state of the art of the research on occupational health conducted at the schools of nursing and psychology of Universidad Pedagogica y Tecnologica de Colombia (UPTC - Pedagogical and Technological University of Colombia) between 1983-2010. A non-experimental study with a quantitative approach and the document analysis technique is used. The population universe was formed by 497 units of analysis. The sample consisted of 71 units of analysis, where 51 corresponded to occupational hazards, 14 to occupational health, and 6 to health education. Data collection was performed by means of a grid composed of two categories, namely: formal aspects and theoretical aspects. The results show that 56% of the research is on nursing and 44% on psychology. The year with the greatest amount of academic production was 2007 for both schools, with a total of 15 dissertations, 7 for nursing, and 8 for psychology. Amongst the most studied risk factors is psychosocial risk; the most quoted author was Gloria Villalobos.
