Can someone help me to understand physical factors, and psychosocial factors? The case I am dealing with has to do with a female drug user who was emotional abused by her parents who were also drug users and her husband physically abused her. Would the physical factors include the fact that she is a drug user, a single parent, unemployed, no parental support. I am still confused about the physchosocial factors
