Abstract

This research was designed with the objective of approaching the theatrical environment and the effects on the construction and expression of gender of its participants from the perspective of Behavior Analysis, making a parallel between the theories of Gender, Theater and Radical Behaviorism, thus, scoring about the possible correlations between the three areas of knowledge. The present work has the general objective of understanding how the theatrical environment influences the construction and expression of gender in its participants. The specific objectives of this work are directed in three aspects, the first is to know the theater as a space of relationship between people, the second about the construction of gender, and finally to understand how the construction of gender in theater takes place from the analytical reference -behavioral. The work is a descriptive and exploratory research with the objective of understanding the theme and the problem thought from the perspective of Psychology and Theater knowledge, using theoretical-bibliographical research and bibliographical review as methodological instruments. It was found that within the theatrical environment, based on non-punitive audiences, the gender construction of the participants can occur without the accompanying punishment, in addition to the possibility of behavioral variation of high frequency and magnitude.
