Abstract:
THE INVESTIGATION IN THE FORMATION OF THE MASTER IN PSICOLOGY. HISTORIC CONSTRUCTION OF AN ABSENCE.
Education and profesional training of psychologist graduate at the School of Psychology of the University of the Republic (Uruguay) has been developped according to the syllabus aproved in 1988.
This syllabus does not provide formal courses where to introduce the students in the acquisition of tools, methods or cientific proceedings for the production of original knowledge.
After fifteen years of teaching practice, it is possible to establish that this lack in research training affects in a negatively mood the academical and professional training of Uruguayan psychologists.
The present paper tries to describe the process that leads to the historical analysis and the necessary changes we introduce in this issue. It analyses the process that contributed to the building of this gap during the dictatorial process, and explores some difficulties related to the achievement of goals rewarding scientific research .
The analysis derives in the proposal of different goals, in order to achieve what it could be defined as a change in the seeking of “an institucional style” regarding research policies in Psychology.
