This article proposes an exploration and explanation of methodological specificity and interdisciplinarity in Environmental Psychology. To achieve this, it relies on existing typologies referring to the types of problems, investigations and methodological approaches. It concludes that there is a methodological pluralism in Environmental Psychology and that the methods are useful products, even though cultural ones, to search for answers to a problem, provided that they are considered in terms of their efficacy and efficiency, regarding their empirical valuation. Environmental intervention is, in turn, marked by social intervention.Downloads
