The lack of a clear argument which facilitates the therapist's professional common identity, besides a socially grateful identity, constitutes a good reason to carry out a study which allows to give answer and to understand the emergence of the occupational therapy. To such effects, it was necessary to take historical events into account, in their political, economic spheres with social structures, favouring certain actions as well as the use of this activity. The aim of the present investigation was to describe different philosophical criteria which have generated models in the practice and training for Occupational Therapy, what should be assumed as a historical dynamical process, adjusted to the cultural, legal and social changes of the moment

Palabras clave : Occupational Therapy; therapist; training in Occupational Therapy; practice in Occupational Therapy; history of occupational therapy.
