Abstract
This paper uses a qualitative approach and analysis inspired by Grounded Theory to address the conditions for generative reflection based on the social representations of tutors and students in initial teacher training. The findings reveal high regard for reflection among both sets of actors. There is also evidence of the predominantly guiding role of the tutor and appreciation of their position as an expert on the part of preservice teachers. The conditions noted previously in the literature are validated and others emerge in accordance with the Chilean context.
