Abstract
This study aims to examine the associations between gambling participation, problem gambling, and cognition. Data were derived from the PINE study. Gambling participation was measured by Modified South Oaks Gambling Screen. Problem gambling was assessed with Problem Gambling Severity Index. Cognition was measured by East Boston Memory Test, Digit Span Backward, Symbol Digit Modalities Test, and Mini-Mental State Examination. Of all participants, 41.940% were male. Higher gambling participation was significantly associated with higher global cognition (b = .008, SE = .003, p < .05), executive function (b = .118, SE = .049, p < .05), and episodic memory (b = .009, SE = .004, p < .05). Higher problem gambling was significantly related to lower Mini-Mental State Examination (b = -.105, SE = .031, p < .001). Guiding older adults' gambling behaviors and intervening in problem gambling timely might be crucial for their cognitive function.
本研究旨在探讨参与赌博、问题赌博与认知之间的关系。数据来源于PINE研究。赌博参与是由改良的南橡树赌博屏幕测量的。采用问题赌博严重程度指数对问题赌博进行评价。认知测试采用东波士顿记忆测验、数字向后广度测验、符号数字模态测验和简易精神状态测验。在所有参与者中，男性占41.940%。较高的赌博参与度与较高的整体认知(b = 0.008, SE = 0.003, p < 0.05)、执行功能(b = 0.118, SE = 0.049, p < 0.05)和情景记忆(b = 0.009, SE = 0.004, p < 0.05)显著相关。较高的问题赌博与较低的迷你精神状态检查(b = -)显著相关。105, SE = 0.031, p < 0.001)。指导老年人赌博行为，及时干预问题赌博，可能对老年人的认知功能至关重要。
期刊介绍：
Research on Aging is an interdisciplinary journal designed to reflect the expanding role of research in the field of social gerontology. Research on Aging exists to provide for publication of research in the broad range of disciplines concerned with aging. Scholars from the disciplines of sociology, geriatrics, history, psychology, anthropology, public health, economics, political science, criminal justice, and social work are encouraged to contribute articles to the journal. Emphasis will be on materials of broad scope and cross-disciplinary interest. Assessment of the current state of knowledge is as important as provision of an outlet for new knowledge, so critical and review articles are welcomed. Systematic attention to particular topics will also be featured.
