Systematic literature review: The use of the concept of perezhivanie in research on teacher training

The aim of this study was to map research, based on a qualitative approach, that uses the Vygotskian concept of perezhivanie (lived experience) as a category of analysis in research on teacher training. The bibliographic survey was carried out using the systematic literature review and meta-synthesis method. As a result of this procedure, four scientific publications that make use of the concept of perezhivanie were identified. Thus, despite being found in several of Vygotsky’s works, we consider that the concept of perezhivanie has been little used in scientific studies inspired by the theoretical heritage of this author. By mapping research on teacher training and perezhivanie, this study provides new starting points for investigations that seek to move forward with the reflection on the importance of considering lived experiences and the interrelationship between emotion and intellect in teacher training courses.
