Definition

  • According to the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration's (SAMHSA's) Center for Substance Abuse Prevention (CSAP), there are six interpersonal domains that contribute toward a person's potential for substance abuse or dependence: individual, peer, family, school, community, and societal influences. Not only are risk factors for substance abuse potentially found within each of these six experiential domains, but there are also protective factors within each domain that may reduce the probability of substance use.
