HISTORY
In 1977, Psychiatrist George L. Engel, called for
The need for a new medical model, he argued
that medicine in general and psychiatry in
particular ought to shift from a bio-medical
perspective of disease to a biopsychosocial (BPS)
perspective on health.
He argued that the bio-medical perspective was
too reductionistic and that a holistic perspective
grounded in general systems theory was
necessary to address health related issues.
The World Health Organization seems to agree
with Engles view in that it defines its central
mission as providing well-being which is defined
as an overall state of health and happiness. (10)
This is a
new
medical
paradigm
!
Psychological
causes for a
health
problem such
as lack of selfcontrol
Biological component
seeks to understand
how the cause of the
illness steams from the
functioning of the
individuals body

You can get a masters degree in anything you want, but where do you go to study
yourself?, you are the one subject that if comprehended on a Masters level, has
the greatest potential to affect your long-term happiness and success.
Imagine the confidence you will feel when you finally know who you are, what you
want and why.

CONCLUSION
After all of this I can conclude that the Biopsychosocial approach
is ideally suited to cope with the increasing complexities of the
clinical sciences, because it focus its attention in different areas
engaging the persons three most important aspects: Biological,
Psychological and Sociocultural, to reach what most important
is.. HEALTH!!!
KIND
REMINDER!!
