Dynamic Multilevel Processes of Recovery in Therapeutic Communities in Mexico (DICO Model) (DICO)

8. května 2026 aktualizováno: Lauro Gutiérrez Castro, Under The Tree Therapeutic Community

Comprehensive Behavioral Community Dynamics (DICO): A Prospective Longitudinal Study of Multilevel Community Processes in Therapeutic Communities for Substance Use Treatment in Mexico

This study aims to develop and empirically evaluate the Dinámica Integral Conductual Comunitaria (DICO) model, a multilevel framework that conceptualizes recovery from substance use disorders as a dynamic process emerging from the interaction between individual behavioral variables, social contingencies, and community-level factors within therapeutic communities in Mexico.

A prospective longitudinal design with intensive repeated measures will be implemented over 8 to 12 weeks. Data will be collected using ecological momentary assessment (EMA), psychometric instruments, behavioral records, and semi-structured interviews.

The study seeks to model recovery trajectories as nonlinear dynamic systems, identifying critical transitions, instability patterns, and contextual moderators associated with treatment adherence and relapse risk.

Přehled studie

Detailní popis

The study integrates three analytical levels:

  1. Individual behavioral processes (e.g., craving, psychological flexibility)
  2. Community-level dynamics (e.g., cohesion, reinforcement contingencies)
  3. Cultural-contextual factors relevant to Mexican therapeutic communities

Quantitative data will be collected through high-frequency EMA and longitudinal assessments, enabling the estimation of dynamic parameters using nonlinear modeling techniques (e.g., differential equations, network analysis).

Qualitative data from semi-structured interviews will provide contextual interpretation of observed behavioral trajectories and system transitions.

The study does not involve manipulation or assignment to interventions; it is designed to observe naturally occurring processes within residential treatment settings.

Studijní populace

Adult individuals undergoing residential treatment for substance use disorders in therapeutic communities in Mexico. The population is characterized by varying levels of substance dependence severity, psychosocial vulnerability, and exposure to structured community-based treatment environments that emphasize behavioral regulation, peer support, and institutional norms.

Participants are embedded in a communal living setting where daily routines, social interactions, and reinforcement contingencies are structured by the therapeutic model, providing a naturalistic context for observing multilevel behavioral and recovery processes.

Intervence / Léčba
Therapeutic Community Residents
Adult residents undergoing residential treatment for substance use in therapeutic communities in Mexico. Participants are followed prospectively for 8-12 weeks using intensive longitudinal assessment, including ecological momentary assessment (EMA), psychometric measures, behavioral logs, and qualitative interviews. No experimental manipulation or assignment to interventions is performed.
