Abstract

The evolution of the research and practice in Peruvian psychology is presented, revealing the intersection of science and human behavior in a multiculturally diverse and fragmented country, primarily focusing on answering Peruvian problems. This chapter sheds light on the history, education and training, research and practice, and the status of psychology in Peru. It aims to briefly analyze its challenges and the critical importance of transcending traditional boundaries to continue shaping our understanding of the mind, behavior, and the challenging societal landscape we must face.
