REIS, Joaquim. Modelo metateórico da Psicologia da Saúde para o séc. XXI: Interacção ou integração biopsicossocial?. Aná. Psicológica [online]. 1999, vol.17, n.3, pp.415-433. ISSN 0870-8231.

Two biopsychosocial metatheories are identified and characterized: the hierarchical or interactionist, has been the background conceptual framework for Health Psychology in the last two decades, and the integrative or dialectical, that is proposed as the inspiration to this discipline. A theoretical and methodological contrast between these two metatheories is presented with reference to several items: cross-disciplinary work and team work, mind-body relationship, person's conceptual-affective autonomy, therapist-client relationship, compliance with preventive/cura-tive regimens and health and disease didactics, in order to understand their implications to Health Psychology.

Palavras-chave : Biopsychosocial model; Health Psychology; integration and dialectic.
