VAIRO, Alexandre Cunha  y  REZENDE FILHO, Luiz Augusto Coimbra de. CONCEPTUAL PROFILE AS A RESEARCH SUBJECT AND ITS APPLICATION IN TOPICS OF BIOLOGY. Ens. Pesqui. Educ. Ciênc. [online]. 2013, vol.15, n.1, pp.193-208. ISSN 1983-2117.  https://doi.org/10.1590/1983-21172013150112.

This study conducted a survey on how researchers have been carrying on the theory and methodology of conceptual profiles assembly of Biology concepts. In eight selected works, an assessment of the theoretical framework and tools for collecting and analyzing data was made. It was observed that authors use the same theoretical and methodological framework proposed for the Conceptual Profile Approach, but they also use additional frameworks and statistical methods in data handling, aiming advances in research. Not all studies were able to define conceptual profiles for the addressed notions, because they did not always met all the necessary conditions. Teaching approaches based on this notion contributes to students' enrichment and awareness of the multi-dimensional character of a scientific concept.
