Online Gaming Disorder and Sports Betting Addiction
Worldwide estimates of the prevalence of online gaming disorder (OGD) and online sports betting addiction (OSBA) have become exceedingly high, particularly among young people. The objective of this study was to compare the sociodemographic and clinical profiles of treatment-seeking patients for these mental health disorders. The sample included n = 495 patients ( n = 108 OGD and n = 387 OSBA) recruited from a tertiary care unit specialized in the…
Are there clinical, psychopathological and therapy outcomes correlates associated with self-exclusion from gambling
Plasma concentration of leptin is related to food addiction in gambling disorder
Common and differential risk factors behind suicidal behavior in patients with impulsivity-related disorders
Motherhood and Treatment Outcome in Female Patients with Compulsive Buying–Shopping Disorder
Motherhood has been proposed as an internal facilitating factor for the recovery of women with mental disorders. However, at the same time, there are significant barriers that may be interfering with the access and adherence to treatment for these women. The present longitudinal study aimed to deepen the sociodemographic and clinical profile of women with children and compulsive buying-shopping disorder (CBSD), and to explore the association betw…
Phenotype of Gambling Disorder Patients with Lotteries as a Preferred Form of Gambling
Lottery gambling can become an addictive behavior which can significantly interfere with daily functioning. The objectives of this work were to estimate the prevalence of lottery gambling, to assess the profile related to this gambling type in a large clinical sample of patients who met criteria for gambling disorder (GD), and to compare this profile with the other two non-strategic forms of gambling (slot-machines and bingo). Sample included n =…
Gambling activity in the old-age general population
Old age constitutes a vulnerable stage for developing gambling-related problems. The aims of the study were to identify patterns of gambling habits in elderly participants from the general population, and to assess socio-demographic and clinical variables related to the severity of the gambling behaviours. The sample included N = 361 participants aged in the 50–90 years range. A broad assessment included socio-demographic variables, gambling prof…
Contribution of stressful life events to gambling activity in older age
Older subjects are susceptible to develop gambling problems, and researchers have attempted to assess the mechanisms underlying the gambling profile in later life. The objective of this study was to identify the main stressful life events (SLE) across the lifespan which have discriminative capacity for detecting the presence of gambling disorder (GD) in older adults. Data from two independent samples of individuals aged 50+ were analysed: N = 47 …
Psychopathogical status and personality correlates of problem gambling severity in sports bettors undergoing treatment for gambling disorder
Prevalence of Suicidal Behavior and Associated Clinical Correlates in Patients with Behavioral Addictions
Addictive disorders are characterized by severe consequences, including suicidal events, but most studies investigating the association between addiction and suicidal risk have focused on substance use disorders and gambling disorder at the expense of the rest of behavioral addictions. This study examined the prevalence and the associated clinical correlates of suicidal ideation and suicide attempts in a sample of patients with a diagnosis of beh…
Response trajectories of gambling severity after cognitive behavioral therapy in young-adult pathological gamblers
The influence of chronological age on cognitive biases and impulsivity levels in male patients with gambling disorder
Gambling Phenotypes in Online Sports Betting
The increasing understanding of latent classes underlying OSB phenotypes is essential in guiding the development of reliable screening tools to identify individuals highly vulnerable to addictive behaviors among Internet gamblers, as well as in planning prevention and treatment initiatives focused on the precise profiles of these patients
Does Money Control Enhance the Effectiveness of CBT for Gambling Disorder
Gambling and Impulsivity Traits
Gambling disorder (GD) is a psychiatric condition that was recently recategorized as a non-substance-related addiction in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Health Disorders. Criminal activity is commonly associated with gambling; however, few empirical studies to date have examined sociodemographic and psychological variables in this population. In this study, we explored criminal behavior history in a sample of consecutively recrui…
The Contribution of Sex, Personality Traits, Age of Onset and Disorder Duration to Behavioral Addictions
Background and aims: Increases in the prevalence of behavioral addictions worldwide have led to a growth in the etiological research of the specific contribution of risk/protective factors to these disorders. The objective of this study was to assess the relative role of patients' sex, age of disorder onset and disorder duration on the clinical profile of behavioral addictions. Methods: Our sample included treatment-seeking patients diagnosed wit…
Comparison between Immigrant and Spanish Native-Born Pathological Gambling Patients
The study compared clinical, psychopathological, and personality profiles between immigrants and Spanish native-born pathological gambling patients. A total of 1,601 native-born and 133 immigrant patients attending treatment at a specialized hospital unit were administered a battery of questionnaires during clinical assessment. Outcome measures were compared between both groups and the incremental predictive accuracy of the area of origin was exa…
