    This document presents a model of the factors affecting drug use and abuse. It shows that distal antecedents like peer groups and parental drug use, as well as immediate antecedents like availability and laws, can influence a person's disposition to use drugs. This disposition, combined with additional immediate antecedents like mood states, can then lead to actual drug use. Drug use can result in both aversive consequences like damage and dysfunction, as well as reinforcing consequences like mood enhancement, which can further influence future drug use and potentially lead to tolerance and withdrawal symptoms.
