Multiple categorization schemes have been proposed, with scores 3-7 variously interpreted as reflecting a 'moderate' degree of problems. Crucially, it is possible to land in this Moderate-risk category by reporting one or two persistent problems, or up to seven problems that occur more sporadically. Given that DSM-V gambling disorder may occur either persistently or episodically, this confounding of problems' occurrence and their frequency necessitates the development of a method for delineating the PGSI's Moderate-risk category. We propose a variance clustering approach for understanding Moderate-risk cases on the PGSI. Using 3,868 Moderate-risk cases from an existing database of 18,494 Canadian online gamblers, we use K-means clustering to identify distinct subgroups within the variances of collected PGSI surveys. We find that three clusters (which correspond to lower [61.83%], higher [8.85%], and intermediate [29.32%] variance cases) are not equal in size, and are separated at cutoffs equal to 0.40 and 0.81. These clusters differ in terms of the number of PGSI items endorsed, and multiple dimensions of participants' sociodemographic background. These variance boundaries, and the case clusters they separate, are easy to compute and offer useful context that further informs summed survey scores falling in the Moderate-risk category of the PGSI. Additional applications, and avenues for further research are discussed.","PeriodicalId":48155,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Gambling Studies","volume":" ","pages":"1071-1085"},"PeriodicalIF":2.2,"publicationDate":"2025-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144004692","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Emotional reactivity to different gambling stimuli can be indexed by autonomic nervous system (ANS) responses measured by skin conductance responses (SCR) and heart rate (HR). Genetic markers regulating neural dopaminergic activity, such as the D2 dopamine receptor, might confer differential sensitivity to gambling stimuli, which may also be modulated by previous exposure to gambling. To date, no previous studies have explored the relationship between genetic markers of the D2 dopamine receptor, real-life gambling exposure and ANS responses during gambling. Hence, this study explored associations and interactions between DRD2 C957T (rs6277) and ANKK1 Taq1A (rs1800497) genotypes, real-life gambling frequency and autonomic responses during reward anticipation and outcome delivery in a slot machine task producing wins, near-misses and full-misses. Participants (n = 270) performed a computerized slot machine task with recordings of SCRs and HR responses during gambling performance and provided saliva samples for DNA extraction. Taq1A A1 carriers showed increased SCRs and HR responses during reward anticipation and to wins. Greater responsivity during anticipation, as well as to wins and full-misses, was also observed in C957T heterozygotes. Regarding real-life gambling involvement, higher gambling frequency among Taq1A A1 carriers was associated with decreased HR responses during anticipation and to wins. Results suggest that polymorphic variants of the D2 dopamine receptor may confer differential sensitivity to different gambling stimuli which may further be modulated by real-life gambling exposures. However, further studies are needed in well powered samples of gamblers and control subjects.","PeriodicalId":48155,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Gambling Studies","volume":" ","pages":"1015-1040"},"PeriodicalIF":2.2,"publicationDate":"2025-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12361328/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144188289","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The state has a diverse population and a well-established gambling industry. The study used data from a survey of 19,202 adults in 2018 and 2019 and found that problem gambling rates (3.1-3.9%) were significantly higher than the national average. The study revealed significant differences in problem gambling prevalence based on sociodemographic factors, with higher rates among males, younger adults, and racial/ethnic minorities, particularly Native American/American Indian respondents. Substance use behaviors and adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) showed strong associations with problem gambling. Logistic regression analyses showed that being male, identifying as Latinx or Native American/American Indian, having lower educational attainment, experiencing housing instability, engaging in substance use, and reporting multiple ACEs significantly increased the odds of problem gambling. A risk score index indicated that the likelihood of problem gambling increased considerably with the accumulation of risk factors. These findings highlight the complex and multifaceted nature of problem gambling in New Mexico, underscoring the need for culturally sensitive interventions. The study offers valuable insights for policymakers, healthcare providers, and community organizations to develop evidence-based strategies to address problem gambling in this specific demographic context.","PeriodicalId":48155,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Gambling Studies","volume":" ","pages":"1305-1327"},"PeriodicalIF":2.2,"publicationDate":"2025-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143587220","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The sample included 440 adults seeking treatment for gambling disorder who completed an assessment of diagnostic criteria at intake. Three distinct classes were identified through a latent class analysis of GD criteria: Escape and Chasing, Preoccupation and Distress, and All symptoms. The All-symptoms class showed the highest elevation of cognitive distortions but shared similar levels of self-efficacy with the Preoccupation and Distress class. The Escape and Chasing class was found to exhibit the highest level of gambling-related self-efficacy and shared similar levels of cognitive distortions with the Preoccupation and Distress class. Significant differences were found in the demographic variables of having children under the age of 18 and employment status.

The sample was 53.6% female, had a mean age of 52.4 years (SD = 15.4), and 61.8% had Northern/Western European heritage. The magnitude of the relationship between sixteen (44%) study variables and PG varied between sexes, though these effects were generally small. These variables include: (1) past month participation in lotteries, electronic gambling machines, sports betting, bingo, and financial speculation; (2) all measures of gambling intensity (breadth, frequency, expenditure); (3) enhancement and coping motivations for gambling; and (4) five additional substance use and mental health variables. With the exception of past month bingo participation, posttraumatic stress disorder, history of substance-related problems, negative life events, and impulsivity, these effects were larger for females relative to males. Finally, multivariate analyses revealed notable differences in the risk factors for PG, with variation in male PG being uniquely explained by gambling to develop skill, substance use disorder, negative life events, and age, and variation in female PG being uniquely explained by online gambling, breadth of gambling involvement, and coping motives. These findings highlight potential sex-specific pathways to PG that should be the subject of future research.","PeriodicalId":48155,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Gambling Studies","volume":" ","pages":"1361-1381"},"PeriodicalIF":2.2,"publicationDate":"2025-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144227282","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The study aimed to elucidate the relationship between gambling attitudes, gambling behaviour, and problem gambling, using responses to the 2018 Northern Territory Gambling Prevalence and Wellbeing Survey. Data from 1629 participants (Mage = 49.87 years; SD = 14.58 years; 51.63% female) who completed the Attitudes Towards Gambling Survey (ATGS), Problem Gambling Severity Index (PGSI), and reported their gambling frequency were analysed. Prior to testing for moderation of the attitude-frequency path by PGSI risk category, the measurement model of the ATGS was assessed for invariance and one item was removed to improve its psychometric properties. Problem gambling severity moderated the relationship between attitudes towards gambling and gambling frequency. The relationship between attitudes towards gambling and gambling behaviour strengthened at higher levels of problem gambling. Results indicate that the higher the risk of problem gambling, the stronger the influence of gambling attitudes on gambling frequency. These findings are discussed in relation to cognitive dissonance, rationalisation, gambling motivation, and the potential implications for problem gambling prevention strategies.","PeriodicalId":48155,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Gambling Studies","volume":" ","pages":"1163-1174"},"PeriodicalIF":2.2,"publicationDate":"2025-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12361334/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143568557","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In the regression model, gambling disorder was not significantly associated with suicide mortality, which was associated with substance use disorder and low education in men and for women the model could not draw conclusions on predicting factors. Mortality was also elevated in cases; 94 of the deceased were controls (1.3%) and 132 were cases (3.8%, p < 0.001). In the regression model gambling disorder was not significantly associated with mortality, this was predicted by socioeconomic status, increasing age, low education level, somatic comorbidity, substance use disorder and previous intentional self-harm in men and for women by increasing age and somatic comorbidity. In conclusion, gambling disorder is associated with increased mortality and suicide death.
