GARCIA-VINIEGRAS, Carmen R Victoria y MARTINEZ CANALS, Elena. Factores psicosociales y salud: Reflexiones necesarias para su investigación en nuestro país. Rev Cubana Med Gen Integr [online]. 1997, vol.13, n.6, pp. 572-576. ISSN 1561-3038.
A series of reflections about the central categories that should be studied in connection with the health-disease relationship from a psychosocial perspective, and about the development of techniques contributing to health promotion in its widest sense are taken into consideration. The present situation of this topic at the international level, as well as the postulates regarding primary health care exposed at important world summit conferences held during the last 10 years are dealt with in this paper. It is analyzed the priority given by our sociopolitical system to the preventive and promotional health aspects, making possible that the declaration of principles of all these summit conferences come true in our country. It is also explained the importance garanted by our national health system to the research of the psychosocial aspects of the health-disease process, and to the need of applying the clinical, epidemiological and social approach to the diagnosis and analysis of the status of our communities.
