CALABRESI, CORINA  and  POLANCO, FERNANDO. Education in Psychology in Argentina: Hugo Klappenbach's interview. Univ. Psychol. [online]. 2011, vol.10, n.2, pp.613-626. ISSN 1657-9267.

We dialogue with Dr. Hugo Klappenbach, the well-known Latin-American researcher in the field of history of psychology as well as in the field of Psychology Education. Klappenbach gives a critical overview over the teaching of psychology in Argentina. From his perspective, psychology education in the whole country has been biased almost exclusively by Psychoanalysis and by clinical interests. Klappenbach compares such psychoanalytical perspective with teaching of psychology in other countries in Latin America, Europe or United States. Finally, he points out possible future directions related to psychology education both at national and international level.

Keywords : Psychology; Teaching; Argentine; Klappenbach.
