Abstract

MARTINS, Bárbara Amaral  and  RUCKERT, Fabiano Quadros. The Bolsa Família Program and education: an analysis of Brazilian scientific production from the SciELO database (2003-2018). Rev. Bras. Educ. [online]. 2019, vol.24, e240061.  Epub Nov 25, 2019. ISSN 1809-449X.  https://doi.org/10.1590/s1413-24782019240061.

The objective of the study was to analyze a sample of the Brazilian scientific production published in national scientific journals, regarding the Programa Bolsa Família (Bolsa Família Program) and its relations with Education. The data analyzed come from 11 works located in the Scientific Electronic Library Online, and, as a whole, offer an overview of the themes, methods, concepts and problems contemplated by the researchers studying the Programa Bolsa Família. From the reading of the selected works, we identified five thematic categories. These are: conditionality of education; conceptions about the program; educational indicators; age-series distortion; conditions of school supply. The results of the study indicate a predominance of quantitative approaches and a tendency to use metadata; and point to an incipient concern with the beneficiaries’ perception of the program and the quality of the education offered in schools with a high beneficiary index.

Keywords : Programa Bolsa Família; analysis of scientific production; Brazil.
