title: [Prevention as "extended clinical care". A working, hypothesis on the professional duties of the psychologist in the materno-infant field].
abstract: The professional duties of the psychologist operating in the mother and baby sector are examined in the light of the cultural and operational prospects opened by the Health Service Reform Law. Within this framework a brief review is presented of the various models of the "psychologist's role" that have successively developed in Italy. Emphasis is then placed on the importance of preventive work in the modern sense, a role that combines the contributions of both clinical and community social psychology to create what amounts to an "extended" clinical practice.
