Notes
1 The journal's style utilizes the category substance abuse as a diagnostic category. Substances are used or misused; living organisms are and can be abused. Editor's note.
2 The reader is asked to consider concepts such as “ risk” and “protective” factors, often noted in the literature, need to be adequately delineated in terms of their dimensions (linear, nonlinear), their “demands,” the critical necessary conditions which are necessary for either of these concepts, and posited processes to operate (begin, continue, become anchored and integrate, change as de facto realities change, cease, etc.) or not to and whether their underpinnings are theory-driven, empirically based, individual, and/or systemic stakeholder-bound, based upon “principles of faith,” or what. This is necessary to clarify if these terms are not to remain as yet additional shibboleths in a field of many stereotypes. Editor's note.
