Abstract

The body-map storytelling is a methodology increasingly used in research. The objective was to carry out a meta-synthesis to synthesize, interpret and analyze results of qualitative evidence from research on body-map storytelling with vulnerable populations and to understand what gap is addressed in the production of knowledge with its use. The databases were Web of Science, Proquest, VHL, Scopus, Ebsco, SciELO and PubMed, resulting in 4,050 articles. After applying the inclusion/exclusion criteria, eight articles resulted. The synthesis of the qualitative evidences was organized in three categories of analysis: (1) creative innovation; (2) therapeutic potential; (3) emancipatory methodology. It is concluded that the tool is in line with the emancipatory and critical paradigm, and dialogue with clinical and community psychology.
