Abstract
The relevant milestones on the development of psychology in Cuba are linked to the work of Cuban psychologist Dr. Alfonso Bernal del Riesgo. Method. The method consisted in the construction of a time line, review of historical documents, and conducting interviews. Results. Three periods were identified: 1) The theoretical basis of Psychology and Civics, approached from the notion of cubanosofìa, that is the psychological sociocultural understanding of Cuban identity; 2) the development of psychology as a major at the University of Havana and independent of philosophy; 3) Psychology as a science linked to different areas of professional activities. The study of the life and work of Bernal del Riesgo allows for an understanding of processes in the historical development of psychology in Cuba.Authors who publish with this journal agree to the following terms:
