Objective: describe the panorama of the scientific literature in Nursing based on the Theory of Social Representations (TSR). Methodo: this is a descriptive, bibliometric, research with a quantitative approach. After reading the abstracts and systematizing the material, a descriptive statistical analysis took place. Results: based on the reading and analysis of abstracts listed online at the Digital Library of Theses and Dissertations (DLTD), from 2006 to 2014, 5,165 papers produced by nurses in Brazil, between 1997 and 2014, were found. Out of these, 119 correspond to the research object “Theory of Social Representations and Nursing,” representing 2.30% of the national literature by nurses. Out of this total, 74.78% refer to dissertations and 25.22% to theses. The literature is concentrated in the regions Southeast (47.05%); South (29.41%); and Northeast (23.52%). Conclusion: the representativeness of the theme in the Brazilian context contributes to advances in knowledge in the field of Nursing.
