Abstract
The academic Psychology of Religion (PR) in Brazil is examined in its history, achieve-
ments and perspectives, with emphasis on its institutional dimension. Its history began
as an early Association around the Catholic University of São Paulo, as the offering of
post-graduate and graduate disciplines, as a Laboratory, and as a Working Group (WG),
belonging to the National Association for Research and Post-Graduation in Psychology.
Its accomplishments are ordered along its history, with emphasis on the empirical and
theoretical research, theses and dissertations in post-graduate programs, national
Seminaries on PR, participation of the WG in national and international events, and
its spreading in public and private universities. Its prospects cover the following topics:
having the Psychology programs offering PR, developing a network among the national
researchers in PR, enlarging the scope of PR´s subject matters, having an interdisci-
plinary approach, increasing international contact, especially through IAPR, translating
fundamental texts into Portuguese, helping clinical, social and school psychologists in
psycho-religious matters.
Keywords: Academic Psychology of Religion. Religious Sense Healt and religious iden-
tity. Faith and therapy.
