Despite the attempts of diverse organizations to achieve the linguistic normalization of the discipline, the results have not been successful, due to the inefficacy of the methodologies suggested. Specifically, the situation is further aggravated in Spanish language because of the primacy of English and the lack of own occupational therapy literature. This issue stands as one of the main obstacles to the progress and recognition of this discipline in the academic and cultural field, considering the relevance of linguistic normalisation to stablish specialised communication, to precisely transmit scientific knowledge, to ensure the rigour when investigating and to improve clinical practice. Thus, the future of occupational therapy must aim to define, stablish a hierarchy, and denominate the main concepts of the area to warrant the settlement of the profession as a science. El establecimiento de un consenso terminológico en el ámbito de la terapia ocupacional se ha convertido en una preocupación primordial para los profesionales del sector, ya que la rápida evolución disciplinar durante las últimas décadas ha dificultado la consolidación de un lenguaje profesional unificado. A pesar de los intentos de diversas organizaciones para la normalización terminológica de esta disciplina, los resultados no han sido exitosos, sobre todo por la ineficacia de las metodologías propuestas. En concreto, en el caso del español la situación se agrava, debido principalmente a la primacía del inglés y a la carencia de literatura de terapia ocupacional propia. Esta problemática constituye uno de los principales obstáculos para el progreso y reconocimiento de la disciplina en el ámbito académico-cultural, dada la relevancia de la normalización lingüística a la hora de establecer la comunicación especializada, transmitir con precisión el conocimiento científico, asegurar el rigor de la investigación y mejorar la práctica clínica. Por ello, la perspectiva de futuro de la terapia ocupacional debería centrarse en la definición, jerarquización y denominación de los conceptos fundamentales del ámbito para asegurar el asentamiento de la profesión como ciencia.
