NUNES, Jéssica Gomes; MORAES, Letícia Cristina Lima  and  MARCHI JUNIOR, Wanderley. A mapping of theses and dissertations about rhythmic gymnastics in Brazil. Rev. Motriviv. [online]. 2021, vol.33, n.64, e81155.  Epub Nov 30, 2021. ISSN 2175-8042.  https://doi.org/10.5007/2175-8042.2021.e81155.

The visibility and practice of Rhythmic Gymnastics (RG) has grown within countries and has instigated new scientific productions. Therefore, this study aims to identify the profile of the academic-scientific production on Rhythmic Gymnastics indexed in the Brazilian Digital Library of Theses and Dissertations (BDTD) and in the CAPES theses and dissertations database. The methodological path followed has an exploratory and descriptive character. The aim was to evidence and characterize the institutions involved in the productions about the modality and to identify which are the thematic focuses. The scope of the study was composed of 42 productions that used RG as an object of study, in the period 1988-2019. The most researched subjects were those related to health, training, history, aesthetics, and professional training. These five subjects were analyzed using the 5E's Analytical Model of Marchi Júnior (2015). In the end, this study could contribute to the academic environment by mapping the theses and dissertations that address Rhythmic Gymnastics in Brazil, highlighting the less investigated aspects and, thus, likely to be subjects of new research.

Keywords : Rhythmic gymnastics; Knowledge production; Mapping; 5E’s analytical model; Brazil.
