Bidirectional relationships are plausible, as suggested by the Cognitive Behavioral Model of Pathological Internet Use and Cognitive Dissonance Theory. This 12-month two-wave longitudinal study was conducted among 1857 junior middle school students in two Chinese cities to investigate the reciprocal relationships between three domains of MCIG (perceived overevaluation of rewards, perceived urges, and perceived reluctance to stop playing) and IGD. The prevalence of IGD was 10.0 % at Wave 1 (W1) and 9.6 % at Wave 2 (W2). Cross-lagged panel analysis revealed that IGD at W1 significantly predicted all three domains of MCIG at W2. However, among the three MCIG domains, only perceived urges at W1 significantly predicted IGD at W2. Bidirectional relationships were identified between perceived overvaluation of rewards and perceived reluctance to stop playing. Perceived reluctance to stop playing predicted perceived urges, but the reverse was not true. Relationships between perceived overvaluation of rewards and perceived urges were not statistically significant in either direction. In conclusion, significant bidirectional relationships were observed between one domain of MCIG and IGD, as well as between one pair of MCIG; not all MCIG domains were risk factors of IGD. These findings highlight the importance of targeting specific MCIG to disrupt potential vicious cycles. Caution is warranted when interpreting cross-sectional associations, and future longitudinal studies with additional points are recommended for verification.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":7155,"journal":{"name":"Addictive behaviors","volume":"172 ","pages":"Article 108518"},"PeriodicalIF":3.6,"publicationDate":"2025-10-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145263036","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Using data from 2,018 Australian adults with close relationships to gamblers, we employed psychometric item selection, propensity weighting, and control for comorbidities to establish evidence for causal links between reported harms and health utility decrements measured by the SF-6D. Emotional, relational, and financial harms were the most prevalent items selected. Both scales demonstrated excellent reliability (α = 0.89 for GHS-10-AO; α = 0.94 for GHS-20-AO) and strong correlations with health utility measures (r = -0.47 to −0.48 with SF-6D). The relationship between harm scores and health utility showed significant non-linearity, with increasing convexity at higher harm levels. These scales provide the first validated instruments for quantifying health impacts to AOs using a common metric comparable to gambler-focused harm measures, enabling population-level assessment of current gambling harm in the adult population; inclusive of gamblers and connected others. The instruments fill a critical gap in gambling harm measurement and offer jurisdictions tools for monitoring progress toward harm minimisation that encompasses impacts on both gamblers and those around them.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":7155,"journal":{"name":"Addictive behaviors","volume":"172 ","pages":"Article 108513"},"PeriodicalIF":3.6,"publicationDate":"2025-09-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145214143","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
