Objective: To analyse the social representations of the professional autonomy of nurses and nursing for non-nursing health professionals. Methods: This is a qualitative study based on the theory of social representations. Fifty-three non-nursing professionals of a municipal hospital participated in this study. Data were collected between March and April 2015, from hierarchical free evocations using the inductor terms, "professional autonomy of nurses" and "nursing". The data were analysed using EVOC 2003. Results:The most likely core of the social representation of professional autonomy were the terms care, team, and responsibility. Moreover, the likely core of nursing comprises the elements care, team, responsibility, and work. Conclusions:The professional autonomy of nurses and nursing consists of fairly close objects of representation in the studied group, which makes them non-autonomous representations that are still sensitive to the incorporation of new elements. Keywords:Nursing. Nurses. Professional autonomy. Psychology, social. RESUMO Objetivo: Analisar as representações sociais da autonomia profissional do enfermeiro e da enfermagem para profissionais de saúde não enfermeiros.Métodos: Estudo qualitativo delineado pela abordagem estrutural das representações sociais. Participaram 53 profissionais de saúde não enfermeiros de um hospital municipal. A coleta de dados foi realizada de março a abril de 2015 e se deu através de evocações livres hierarquizadas, utilizando os termos indutores "autonomia profissional do enfermeiro" e, em seguida, "enfermagem". A análise de dados foi realizada pelo software EVOC 2003. Resultados:Figuraram como provável núcleo central da representação social da autonomia profissional os termos cuidado, equipe e responsabilidade. Por seu turno, o provável núcleo central da representação da enfermagem é composto pelos elementos cuidado, equipe, responsabilidade e trabalho. Conclusões:A autonomia profissional do enfermeiro e a enfermagem consistem em objetos de representação bastante próximos entre si para o grupo investigado, e, por isso, trata-se de representações não autônomas, ainda sensíveis à incorporação de novos elementos.

This exploratory, qualitative, descriptive study examined the social representations of nurses' professional autonomy held by non-nursing health personnel at a public hospital in the Lakes Region of Rio de Janeiro State in 2015. On an approach structured by Social Representations Theory and Method, 53 health professionals responded to a free evocation form by verbalizing the first 5 words suggested them by the stimulus-term nurses' professional autonomy. EVOC 2003 software was used. The probable central core of the representation comprised the evocations care, team and responsibility, which expressed strongly image-rich and evaluative dimensions. Most of the subjects acknowledged that nurses have professional autonomy. It was concluded that the group's position is essentially favorable to the object represented. But the shortage of affective and practical dimensions reveals that this representation is still in the process of consolidation. Keywords: Professional autonomy; nursing; nurses; psychology, social. RESUMEN: Estudio cuyo objetivo fue analizar las representaciones sociales de la autonomía profesional del enfermero para profesionales de salud no enfermeros en un hospital público en la Região dos Lagos, en Río de Janeiro. Se trata de un estudio descriptivo, cualitativo, exploratorio, realizado en 2015 bajo un abordaje estructural de la Teoría y el Método de las Representaciones Sociales junto a 53 profesionales de salud que respondieron al formulario de evocaciones libres, verbalizando las primeras cinco palabras que les surgieran a partir del término inductor 'autonomía profesional del enfermero'. Para ese análisis, se ha utilizado el software EVOC 2003. Han compuesto el probable núcleo central de la representación las evocaciones de cuidado, equipo y responsabilidad, las que expresan fuertes dimensiones de imágenes y evaluaciones. La mayoría de los individuos reconoció la existencia de la autonomía profesional del enfermero. Se concluye que hay, esencialmente, una posición favorable del grupo en cuanto al objeto de representación. Sin embargo, la escasez de dimensiones afectiva y práctica revela que se trata de una representación aún en proceso de consolidación. Palabras Clave: Autonomía profesional; enfermería; enfermeras; psicología social. Representações sociais da autonomia profissional do enfermeiro para profissionais de saúde não enfermeiros IntroduçãoNa enfermagem, a autonomia profissional representa um tema complexo, cuja necessidade de exploração mais detalhada advém da configuração atual do trabalho do enfermeiro no âmbito hospitalar, que, progressivamente, tem ganhado novos contornos, novas demandas, dificuldades e tecnologias, mas que, por vezes, sustenta práticas ainda centradas no modelo biomédico [1][2][3][4][5] .
Aims: To analyze the social representations of nursing by non-nursing health professionals. Method: This is a descriptive, exploratory research, with a qualitative approach, using Social Representation Theory as a structural approach. A total of 53 non-nursing health professionals participated in this research. The technique used to collect the data was based on free and hierarchical opinions, using the inductor terminology “nursing”. D ata analysis was treated through the software E VOC 2005. Results: The following are among the core terms used to socially represent nursing: care, team, responsibility and work. Discussion: It was to form a balance between the functional, normative, and perceived image of the representation, which includes cognitive and evaluative elements. There is a positive view towards the study object. Conclusion: This representation has been carefully presented as professionals relate to concrete and tangible formats to express the nursing professional, and then they are able to reconstruct the object nursing.
