    Area of Science:

    • Psychiatry
    • Ecology
    • Social Network Analysis

    Background:

    • Mental health professionals recognize social network influences on individual psyche and illness.
    • A systematic model for integrating these factors into therapy and prevention has been lacking.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To propose a workable model for ecopsychiatry.
    • To offer a systemic approach for understanding social network effects in mental health.

    Main Methods:

    • Development of a systemic model inspired by biological ecology.
    • Application of ecological principles to psychiatric and mental health contexts.

    Main Results:

    • Identification of a foundational systemic model for ecopsychiatry.
