abstract="<p>Addiction is a chronic condition with the potential for episodes of remission and relapse. Substance abuse by family members affects family function. There are two distinct phases (i.e., wet and dry) in substance abuse affected families. Family Behavior Loop Mapping as a method of diagramming the repetitive behavior cycles specific to wet and dry phases is introduced, and its use in assessing family functioning and designing effective interventions is illustrated by case examples.</p><p />",
