Revista Internacional de Investigación en Adicciones (RIIAD) is an initiative of the Centros de Integración Juvenil, A.C., aimed at providing a platform for the biannual bilingual (Spanish and English) publication of scientific findings from research on drug use, mental health, and treatments related to problems in both fields. It is also interested in findings related to individual, psychosocial, and cultural factors associated with mental health and substance use, as well as advances in their treatments or interventions.

The scope of RIIAD includes medical, psychological, social, and neuroscience research about substance use, mental health, and related topics, presented in the form of original and review articles, brief research reports, as well as reflections and experiences. All of them are evaluated under a double-blind and anonymous modality.

With this initiative, Centros de Integración Juvenil, A.C., hopes to contribute to the dissemination and diffusion of addiction science and mental health in Latin America and the world, as well as stimulate the work of researchers in these fields.

RIIAD adheres to the code of ethics for the performance of actors involved in the publication process (editors, editorial committee, authors, and reviewers) established by the Committee on Publication Ethics (COPE) and available at www.publicationethics.org. It also complies with the guidelines indicated by the International Committee of Medical Journal Editors (ICMJE) available at www.icmje.org.
