Abstract
Objective. To describe the interpretive repertoires used in the specialized literature to account for the relationship between psychology and decoloniality. Method. A discourse analysis was conducted on a corpus of 115 articles published in Spanish, English, French, and Portuguese between 2015 and 2020. Texts addressing different ways in which psychology relates to the decolonial proposal were identified in the databases Google Scholar, EBSCO, SAGE, Elsevier, ScienceDirect, SciELO, Cairn.info, Wiley, and PsycInfo. Results. The following interpretive repertoires were identified: (a) decolonizing means achieving an improved psychology; (b) decolonizing means constituting a counter-psychology; (c) the mixing of knowledges produces a decolonial psychology; (d) situating is laying siege and, therefore, decolonizing psychology; and (e) decolonizing means going beyond the limits of the discipline. Discussion. These repertoires reveal the discursive strategies used by researchers to address coloniality in psychology within the context of the international production of knowledge.
