MACHADO, Maria Eugênia Costa  e  KIND, Luciana. The weft of health psychology in Brazil: an analysis with tools of the actor-network theory . Psicol. rev. (Belo Horizonte) [online]. 2019, vol.25, n.1, pp.199-218. ISSN 1677-1168.  https://doi.org/10.5752/P.1678-9563.2019v25n1p199-218.

This article presents a study about the development of Health Psychology in Brazil through the theoretical and methodological tools from the Actor- Network theory. Both, the postgraduate programs in Health Psychology in Brazil and the Brazilian Association for Health Psychology have been investigated as methodological resources. It was also meant to present and discuss how Health Psychology appears in the works developed in the postgraduate programs. The present study shows that Health Psychology in Brazil has been conceived as a subfield of Psychology. In the different places where investigations took place along this research, different forms of configuration of Health Psychology were found, which are permeated by controversies, debates, and disputes. The study shows points of convergence that signal towards a singularity, especially the matter of interdisciplinarity, the search for the scientificity status, the construction of networks of associations and the focus on prevention and the promotion of health.

Palavras-chave : Health Psychology; Actor-network theory; Interdisciplinarity.
