On basis of previous research, the objective of the present study was to investigate the structural aspects of the Psychology Course of FFCLRP-USP. Faculty members, contracted psychologists, volunteer supervisors, 2nd to 5th year students and graduate students participated in the study, for a total of 72 subjects. Data were collected using open questions based on a set of systematized information on the curricular structure of the course and analysed by content category analysis. The results indicated 6 categories of more general consideration of the course as a whole and 16 categories that focused on specific parts of a course, and their analysis suggests that the absence of a commom project for the undergraduate course has favored a dense, but fragmented, type of training, permitting early pseudospecializations, and that this disequilibrium in training is linked to emphasis on the quantitative model as a foundation of scientific training and the clinical-diadic model as the foundation of professional training.
