The present paper is a review of the theoretical advances and empirical

findings related to social representations according to the structural approach,

a research stream that aims at studying the influence of social factors

in thinking processes through the identification and characterization

of relationship structures. The presentation of the approach begins with

the baseline definitions of social representations according to a structural

approach, moving on to an overview on the nature of representation elements,

the relationships between representations and practices, cognitive

scheme dimensions, central core theory, representation transformations and

interaction context effects. In addition to positioning ourselves concerning

polemic topics during the review, in the final section we evaluate briefly

the current state and future perspectives of structural research on social

representations, mostly addressing the problem of defining consensus, the

difficulty of characterizing a collective construct from individual data, and

the secondary importance of content in structural laws.
