Abstract

This publication pertains to a Research Plan without fieldwork. Questions how the activity conforms processes of subject formation
in devices Mental Health. To answer this question, Michel Foucault criteria are used. As an analysis, it is understood that activity in
Occupational Therapy, as an object of study and disciplinary intervention strategy, can be considered under conditions allowing that as
a possibility of movement and transformation, enabling the subject to find “something” that has to do with himself, which approximates
the subjectivation; or the conditions in which the activity is presented may tend to be constituted as an instrument of production and
repetition of subjectivity models, being the subject reading object. The publication presents a Groundwork, State of the Art, Research
Problem, Objectives and Design Methodology. It is a Type of Social Research, as Souza Minayo M. C. (1997), and Type of Exploratory-
Descriptive Study, by classification of Sabulsky J. (2000).
