| Summary: | As the 21st Century opened the controversial and unstable discipline of `academic psychology&rsquo; seemed to separating into two radically distinct and perhaps irreconcilable domains. Discursive psychology focused on the management of meaning in a world of norms while Neuropsychology focused on the investigation of brain and cognitive processes. These two domains can be reconciled in a hybrid science that brings them together into a synthesis more powerful than anything psychologists have achieved before. In this paper means Hybrid psychology depends on the intuition that while brains can be assimilated into the world of persons, people cannot be assimilated into the world of cell structures and molecular processes. <br />The project of setting up a hybrid science, in which the symbol using capacities of human beings are brought into a unified scheme with the organic aspects of members of the species homo sapiens, demands the dissolution of the mind-body problem, somehow setting it aside as an illusion, based on a mistaken presupposition. A lo largo del siglo XX, la psicolog&iacute;a acad&eacute;mica parece separarse en dos dominios radicalmente distintos e irreconciliables. La psicolog&iacute;a discursiva se centr&oacute; en la gesti&oacute;n de significado en un mundo de normas, mientras la neuropsicolog&iacute;a se centr&oacute; en la investigaci&oacute;n del cerebro y de los procesos cognitivos. Estos dos dominios pueden reconciliarse en una ciencia h&iacute;brida que las re&uacute;na en una s&iacute;ntesis m&aacute;s potente, logro que los psic&oacute;logos no han conseguido con anterioridad.<br />En este art&iacute;culo, se entiende que la psicolog&iacute;a h&iacute;brida depende de la intuici&oacute;n de que mientras que el cerebro puede asimilarse en el mundo de las personas,&nbsp; las personas no pueden asimilarse en el mundo de las estructuras celulares y los procesos moleculares.<br />El proyecto de crear una ciencia h&iacute;brida, en la que el s&iacute;mbolo incorpore la capacidad de que los seres humanos sean sometidos a un plan unificado de los aspectos org&aacute;nicos de los miembros de la especie homo sapiens, exige la disoluci&oacute;n del problema mente-cuerpo, de alguna manera dejando de lado como una ilusi&oacute;n, basada en una premisa err&oacute;nea. |
