ABSTRACT

Se discuten las bases conceptuales sobre las que asienta la psiquiatría infanto-juvenil considerando las claras divergencias que se plantean al definir salud y enfermedad mental. Se destaca que la mente no es simplemente un fenómeno biológico y, por ello, son necesarios parámetros evaluativos que incluyan los estados subjetivos, así como pasar de pensamientos lineales a formas complejas que incorporen el valor de la experiencia, del azar y del acontecimiento, entre otras ideas, lo cual posibilitará un cambio de perspectiva: el reconocimiento de indicadores positivos de salud mental y no solo ausencia de síntomas o trastornos.


Conceptual basis for Infant and Juvenile Psychiatry are discussed taking into account the clear differences in the definition of Health and Mental Illness. It is emphasized that the mind is not simply a biological phenomenon and, thus, there is a need for assessment parameters that include subjective states, as well as a shift from lineal thoughts to complex forms that include the value of experience, fate, and event, amongst other ideas. This allows a change of perspective: the acknowledgement of the Positive Indicators of Mental Health and not only the absence of symptoms or disorders.
