Spanish Association of Neuropsychiatry

The Spanish Association of Neuropsychiatry (Asociación Española de Neuropsiquiatría, AEN), which also presents itself as AEN-PSM (Profesionales de Salud Mental), is a Spanish professional association for mental health practitioners. Its official website describes it as a body for mental health professionals and organises its activity around sections, publications, position statements and member services. The association maintains a public-facing website at aen.es, where it publishes news, recommended activities, publications, position papers and information for members, including a membership sign-up page and an online shop. The AEN is structured around thematic sections that group members with shared scientific or professional interests. According to the association's own description of its sections, a section may be created by decision of an Extraordinary General Assembly, either on the proposal of the Governing Board or on the proposal of no fewer than thirty members. Each section elects a President and a Secretary from among its members, and the Vice-President of the association is responsible for coordinating with the sections. Sections are required to hold at least one biannual meeting at which they elect their President and Secretary. The sections listed on the association's website include History, Child and Adolescent, Psychoanalysis, Day Hospitals, and Group Psychotherapy, each with named presidents. The association is active in publishing and in public debate on mental health policy. Its website highlights publications such as the journal Norte de Salud Mental and a book series, Colección Estudios, with titles offered for virtual sale. It also reports on events such as the VII Escuela de Otoño (Autumn School) and on contributions to international networks, including a contribution to InterACT, the newsletter of the EPA (European Psychiatric Association). The site also carries position statements and communications from the association and its History Section. As a professional association rather than a commercial company, the AEN does not sell a conventional product line; its offerings are membership, publications, events, training activities and advocacy. Its public communications include statements on mental health legislation, such as a dialogue table on the mental health bill of Asturias, and notices of the death of figures in Spanish psychiatry, such as Dr. Rafael Inglott, described as a reference of Canarian psychiatry and of the Psychiatric Reform in Gran Canaria. The association also promotes manifestos and resources for practitioners, including a guide for psychological therapists.

The Spanish Association of Neuropsychiatry (Asociación Española de Neuropsiquiatría, AEN) is a Spanish professional association for mental health practitioners. Its public identity combines the historical name "Neuropsychiatry" with the more recent descriptor AEN-PSM, standing for Profesionales de Salud Mental (Mental Health Professionals). The association maintains a website at aen.es, where it presents itself as a body for mental health professionals and organises its activity through sections, publications, position statements and member services. A central element of the association's structure is its system of thematic sections. According to the association's own description of its sections, the AEN tends to constitute sections that group orientations, trends or groups of members with specific common scientific or professional interests. A section is approved by an Extraordinary General Assembly, either on the proposal of the Governing Board or on the proposal of no fewer than thirty members. Members who propose a section become members of it, as do all members who request it. Each section has a President and a Secretary elected from among its members, and the association's Vice-President is responsible for coordinating with the sections. Sections must hold at least one biannual meeting at which they elect their President and Secretary. The sections listed on the association's website include History, Child and Adolescent, Psychoanalysis, Day Hospitals, and Group Psychotherapy, each with named presidents. The association is active in publishing. Its website highlights the journal Norte de Salud Mental and the book series Colección Estudios, with titles offered for virtual sale. It also reports on events such as the VII Escuela de Otoño (Autumn School), described as addressing a paradigm shift in mental health, and on contributions to international networks, including a contribution to InterACT, the newsletter of the EPA (European Psychiatric Association). The site also carries position statements and communications from the association and its History Section. As a professional association, the AEN engages in public debate on mental health policy and practice. Its website reports on a dialogue table concerning the mental health bill of Asturias and on the death of Dr. Rafael Inglott, described as a reference of Canarian psychiatry and of the Psychiatric Reform in Gran Canaria. It also promotes manifestos and resources for practitioners, including a guide for psychological therapists and the "Cartagena manifesto". The association provides membership sign-up, an online shop, and information on recommended activities and publications. Its website uses cookies for analytics, content personalisation and advertising purposes, and provides a cookie policy and privacy settings.
