The defi ni on penned by inaugural division president Joseph Matarazzo (1980) refl ected an aggregated inten on that through the par cular educa onal, scien fi c, and professional contribu ons of psychology, health can be promoted and maintained, illness prevented and treated, e ologic and diagnos c correlates iden fi ed, and health policy and systems analysed and improved.…”

“…Reference texts on the formaliza on of health psychology relate it to theore cal and methodological trends in medicine, clinical psychology, epidemiology and public health, and the elucida on of biopsychosocial models for health and disease (Baum, Perry Jr., & Tarbell, 2004;Friedman & Adler, 2011;Pickren & Degni, 2011). More specifi cally, a century of rapidly changing causes of, and social responses to, illness, disability, and death contributed to the integra on of psychology with the burgeoning mul disciplinary fi elds of behavioural medicine and behavioural health (which focus on the prac ce of collabora ve health care and individual health needs and responsibili es, respec vely) (Matarazzo, 1980). The eradica on of previously pervasive contagious diseases, the extension of life expectancy, shi ing interna onal rela ons and the threat of nuclear a ack, equalizing gender familial roles, and dissemina on of scien fi c knowledge and authority contributed to the crea on of new concepts about health that aff ect how people understand themselves and their ac ons, including: lifestyle, stress, diet, fi tness, addic on, and mental health (Baum et al, 2004).…”

“…La psicología de la salud: un recorrido histórico Durante los años sesenta y setenta, surgió la psicología de la salud como una nueva rama de la psicología, misma que tuvo un origen simultáneo en contextos socioeconómicos y geográficos distintos: Cuba y Estados Unidos, y a la cual se conceptualiza, de acuerdo con Matarazzo (1980), como el conjunto de contribuciones enfocadas a la promoción y mantenimiento de la salud, así como la prevención y tratamiento de las enfermedades, dirigida también a la optimización de los sistemas de salud y las políticas públicas, la cual se consolidó con el establecimiento de la Sociedad Cubana de Psicología de la Salud en 1874, y la 38 división (Health psychology) de la APA en 1978.…”

ResumenLos jóvenes son un colectivo de especial importancia para la prevención de enfermedades de transmisión sexual y para la promoción de la salud en general, por ello resulta de interés estudiar las causas y determinantes de sus conductas de salud. El objetivo de esta investigación consistió en estudiar el grado de relación existente entre la conducta de uso del preservativo y otros hábitos de salud, en jóvenes españoles de 14 a 24 años. La muestra estuvo formada por 2171 jóvenes de las comunidades autónomas de Galicia, Andalucía y Madrid. Los resultados indican la existencia de diferencias estadísticamente signifi cativas en función del género. En general las chicas presentan hábitos más saludables, a excepción de la práctica deportiva y el uso sistemático del preservativo masculino. Asimismo, las variables práctica deportiva e higiene buco-dental se muestran como predictores confi ables de la conducta de usar el preservativo.Palabras Claves: Jóvenes, condón, sexo seguro, prevención, VIH/ Sida, sexualidad, salud.
