Over recent years, clinical psychological services have diversified within the health sector, leading to a breakdown in the traditional nexus between clinical psychology and psychiatry, and to the emergence of the interdisciplinary field of behavioural medicine. From their earlier limited role as providers of psychometric assessments in educational and psychiatric hospital settings, clinical psychologists now provide a wide range of therapeutic services and research skills to general hospitals, universities, community health centres, and the private sector. This evolving trend has significant implications for the future structure and direction of clinical practices in clinical psychology, psychiatry and medicine.

The advent of behavioural medicine has presented psychiatry with the need to re-examine its relationships to the human sciences on the one hand, and the natural sciences on the other. This paper discusses the essential differences between these two approaches as they are applied in the clinical situation. It is suggested that a need exists to marry these two ways of approaching patient problems and, in particular, for psychiatrists to improve their understanding of the hermeneutic mode of achieving understanding.

This paper provides an overview of cognitive-behavioural interventions in pediatric behavioural medicine. Although the literature so far is sparse, the contribution of cognitive-behavioural therapy is reviewed in the areas of pediatric cancer, asthma, and diabetes mellitus. The future potential of cognitive-behavioural therapy for the management of other chronic conditions, including cystic fibrosis and rheumatoid arthritis, is recommended.
