sociocultural models of addiction  

Definición

  • Substance use disorders do not occur in a vacuum; therefore, social and environmental influences must be taken into account as causal factors or factors that place individuals and, in some instances, entire communities at risk for these disorders. Several social and environmental features have been identified as having greater influence on those who develop addictions.
