SILVA, Cinthia Lopes da; VELOZO, Emerson Luís  e  RODRIGUES JR, José Carlos. Pesquisa qualitativa em educação física: possibilidades de construção de conhecimento a partir do referencial cultural. Educ. Rev. [online]. 2008, n.48, pp.37-60. ISSN 0102-4698.

This work indicates presuppositions for the qualitative research in Physical Education, starting with a literature review based on the cultural frame of reference. Firstly, we introduce the debate concerning the natural and the human sciences and implications for the Physical Education; we then use a cultural axis as a ground basis for the research in the area, proposing the “dense description” as a possibility for knowledge building; finally, we bring up examples of studies conducted with such an approach. This theoretical methodological approach allows the study of the human being as a cultural being, thus opposed to the naturalised view of a human - predominant in Physical Education.
