General description Community Psychology is a field of research and intervention akin to Social Psychology interested in human behavior in proximate or community social contexts, As an intervention perspective, it deals with socially rooted psychological problems prevention (substance abuse, exclusion, social disintegration, domestic and public violence, mental disorders, school failure, young offenders, etc.). From a positive perspective, it also tackles the promotion of integral human development. Another important feature is that the recipients in community interventions are assumed to participate as active agents in the intervention. Its main objective is studying psychosocial factors that allow individuals to develop, promote and manage power and control over their individual and social environment, in order to solve problems they may suffer and to attain changes in those environments and within the social structure
