El rol del psicólogo en la atención de la salud mental desde el primer nivel de atención: Una revisión sistemática

The aim of this work is to make a state of art in this field. It was made an exahustive search of the researchs made in the last 10 years. For the other side, it was collected the WHO's and OPS's intervention guides and plans. It were used the follow data base: Dialnet, Latindez, Redalic and the Argentina’s Ministery of Science Repository (in spanish and potuguese) and ERIC and PubMed (in english). The key words from the thesaurus were: psychology, primary health care, first level of care, mental health and multidiciplinary work. The researchs converges in their results: there is a lack of multidiciplinary work and there is a practice centered in individual care. But the differents reasearchs does not converge in the explanation of the causes of this state of things. The WHO and the OPS point as main difficulty the absense of intervention protocols in the first level of care.
