This article aims to establish a profile of research production by professors in the field of Human and Social Sciences in Health (HSSH) in graduate studies programs in Public Health, focusing on the period from 2004 to 2012 (three consecutive three-year of the assessment by the Brazilian Graduate Studies Coordinating Board - CAPES), as well as the researchers' views of the publishing process and the main challenges. The data sources were the CAPES assessment notebooks from 2004 to 2012 and the research output recorded in the Curriculum Lattes database for 176 professors from the HSSH field accredited in the graduate studies programs in Public Health in the same period, obtained from the ScriptLattes tool. Online questionnaires were answered anonymously by 59 researchers, besides in-depth semi-structured interviews with 19 researchers from different generations, in addition to incorporating the authors' perceptions from both data sources on the field's recent situation. Research output in HSSH increased by 60.49% in the production of articles and 25.22% in the production of books in the period studied (62.36% of the research output was published in the form of articles). However, the number of researchers did not increase during the period, which may be explained by the difficulty in accreditation in the graduate studies programs due to growing pressure to publish. Researchers from the field expressed dissatisfaction with various aspects of the science publishing process and the effects of CAPES assessment, including the push for "productivism", overlooking differences between areas in research production tempos and processes, a situation that can compromise Public Health's inherent interdisciplinarity.
本文旨在勾勒出公共卫生研究生项目中人类与社会科学健康领域（HSSH）教授的研究成果概况，重点关注2004年至2012年期间（巴西研究生项目协调委员会 - CAPES连续三次三年期评估），以及研究人员对出版过程和主要挑战的看法。数据来源包括2004年至2012年的CAPES评估笔记本，以及通过ScriptLattes工具从同期公共卫生研究生项目中获得认可的176名HSSH领域教授的课程Lattes数据库中记录的研究产出。59名研究人员匿名回答了在线问卷，此外还对19名不同代际的研究人员进行了深入的半结构化访谈，并纳入了作者从这两个数据源对该领域近期情况的看法。在所研究的时期内，HSSH领域的研究产出中文章数量增长了60.49%，书籍数量增长了25.22%（62.36%的研究产出以文章形式发表）。然而，在此期间研究人员数量并未增加，这可能是由于发表压力不断增大，导致在研究生项目中获得认可存在困难。该领域的研究人员对科学出版过程的各个方面以及CAPES评估的影响表示不满，包括对“生产主义”的推动、忽视研究生产节奏和过程中不同领域之间的差异，这种情况可能会损害公共卫生固有的跨学科性。
