There are few studies that present the image of the profession of psychology in the Spanish context. This descriptive and correlational study aims to describe the current state of opinion about psychology that exists in Spanish society. An incidental sample of 920 were surveyed. A descriptive analysis of the responses that generate a global pattern is carried out. Also a cluster analysis which divides the sample into four specific response profiles was performed. The main results indicate that opinions are generally positive, although there are still some myths and more traditional visions that are observed in some clusters, so work should continues to increase and spread the knowledge of society in relation to the profession.

Keywords : Opinión; Attitude; Psychologist; Psychology.
