Biological forces refer to one of four (4) basic forces of development that include all genetic and health -related factors. Biological forces not only include examples as Prenatal development, brain maturation, puberty, menopause, carviovascular functioning, etc. , but also include the effects of lifestyle factors, such as diet and exercise. Biological forces therefore can be viewed as providing the raw material necessary for development.

This model assumes that mental health conditions and human behaviour are largely influenced by physical and biological processes, such as neurotransmitter imbalances, brain abnormalities, and inherited traits.
Biological model of addiction refers to the model of addiction that holds that addiction is due primarily to a person's neurology and genetic disposition.
