• Resumen

  • Se analiza, desde un modelo histórico-sociológico, la consolidación y profesionalización de la Historia de la Psicología en el marco de la emergencia disciplinar de la Historia de las Ciencias del Comportamiento en Estados Unidos. Desde una perspectiva metodológica histórica, se describe primero el modelo historiográfico de Edwin Boring, enraizado en el experimentalismo. Se describen luego las recensiones del campo que, hacia 1960, realizaron Robert Watson y Robert Young. Se sintetizan los avances profesionales e institucionales más importantes del campo, enfatizando los Cursos de Verano de Historia de la Psicología. La ponderación de estos avances formativos revela su centralidad tanto para la profesionalización del campo como para la incorporación de influencias extra-disciplinarias, provenientes de la historiografía, la sociología y la filosofía de la ciencia, especialmente en la historia social o sociológica de la psicología. Se concluye que la profesionalización fue motorizada en gran medida por estas instancias y sus protagonistas.
