Researchers have many models. There are four main Behavioral Models for addiction: the Moral Model (or Disease Model), Socio-Cultural Model, Psycho-dynamic Model and Socio-Cultural Model. According to the Moral Model of addiction, addiction is an act of moral weakness. It is also believed that the individual responsible for their addiction is responsible. Moral Model supporters view drug addiction as a choice. According to the Disease Model of addiction, substance abuse is a "chronic relapsing disease that affects the brain's structure and function". Research on the neurobiological causes of addiction has produced mixed results. The only treatment is abstinence. Socio-Cultural models attempt to explain why certain groups are more susceptible than others to substance abuse. It looks at how the marginalized can become more susceptible to addiction due to discrimination, poor life quality, low opportunity and other problems. Psycho-Dynamic modeling considers trauma and mental illness as precursors to addiction. Many rehabilitation centers offer treatment for "co-occurring" conditions, which is a combination of substance abuse disorder and a mental health diagnosis.
