Hoy en día se entiende a la salud como un estado de bienestar, en siglos pasados la idea de salud estaba centrada en la enfermedad o el proceso de alteración de un estado normal del funcionamiento humano. La psicología atiende dos tipos de alteraciones de la salud, aquellas que corresponden al funcionamiento mental en sí mismo a través de la psicopatología y las alteraciones que corresponden a la salud en su noción global a través de la psicología de la salud.

Frequently asked questions
Access to lectures and assignments depends on your type of enrollment. If you take a course in audit mode, you will be able to see most course materials for free. To access graded assignments and to earn a Certificate, you will need to purchase the Certificate experience, during or after your audit. If you don't see the audit option:
The course may not offer an audit option. You can try a Free Trial instead, or apply for Financial Aid.
The course may offer 'Full Course, No Certificate' instead. This option lets you see all course materials, submit required assessments, and get a final grade. This also means that you will not be able to purchase a Certificate experience.
When you enroll in the course, you get access to all of the courses in the Specialization, and you earn a certificate when you complete the work. Your electronic Certificate will be added to your Accomplishments page - from there, you can print your Certificate or add it to your LinkedIn profile.
