摘要

现有证据表明，紧迫感——在强烈的积极或消极情绪下的鲁莽行为倾向——反映了附带情绪调节（ER）的失调。据报道，紧迫感可以预测视频游戏和赌博渴望的强度和频率，但不能预测渴望转化为问题症状的严重程度。然而，有意识的内质反应策略，如认知重评和表达抑制，在渴望控制中的作用仍未得到充分探讨。方法对303名普通赌徒和355名普通视频游戏玩家进行紧急性特征、急诊策略、自我报告的渴望和游戏/赌博相关问题症状的严重程度的评估。本文运用结构方程模型（SEM）对以下假设进行了检验：(1)渴望在积极/消极紧急程度与严重程度之间的中介作用，以及(2)内情反应策略在渴望程度与严重程度之间的调节作用。结果结果显示，在两种活动中，积极的紧迫性（而非消极的紧迫性）显著预测渴望，复制了积极的紧迫性→渴望→严重程度的途径。然而，紧迫性并没有缓和渴望与严重性的关系。关于故意内啡反应策略，在游戏样本中，抑制缓和了渴望和严重程度之间的关系：在更倾向于使用抑制的个体中，渴望与问题症状的严重程度之间的关系更强。在赌博样本中，重新评价缓和了渴望对严重程度的影响：在经常使用重新评价的个体中，渴望与严重程度的相关性较弱。这些发现表明，积极的紧迫感在游戏和赌博渴望中起着类似的作用，突出了渴望出现的食欲机制。有意识的ER似乎在与渴望的相互作用中影响严重程度，在使用较少适应策略的个体中，渴望对严重程度的影响更大。

Untangling the role of emotion regulation in gambling and video gaming cravings: A replication and extension study

Background

Existing evidence suggests that urgency—the tendency to act rashly under intense positive or negative affect—reflects dysregulated incidental emotion regulation (ER). Urgency has been reported to predict the intensity and frequency of video gaming and gambling craving, but not the translation of craving onto severity of problem symptoms. However, the role of intentional ER strategies, such as cognitive reappraisal and expressive suppression, in craving control remains underexplored.

Method

303 regular gamblers and 355 regular video gamers were assessed on urgency traits, ER strategies, self-reported craving, and gaming/gambling-related severity of problem symptoms. Using structural equation modeling (SEM), we tested hypotheses regarding: (1) the mediating role of craving in the relationship between positive/negative urgency and severity, and (2) the moderating role of ER strategies in the link between craving and severity.

Results

Results revealed that, in both activities, positive urgency—but not negative urgency—significantly predicted craving, replicating a positive urgency→craving→severity pathway. However, urgencies did not moderate the craving-severity relationship. Regarding intentional ER strategies, in the gaming sample, suppression moderated the association between craving and severity: cravings were more strongly associated with severity of problem symptoms in individuals more prone to use suppression. In the gambling sample, reappraisal moderated the impact of craving on severity: craving was less strongly associated with severity in individuals using reappraisal more often.

Discussion

These findings suggest that positive urgency operates similarly in gaming and gambling cravings, highlighting appetitive mechanisms in craving emergence. Intentional ER seems to influence severity in interaction with craving, with craving exerting a stronger impact on severity in individuals using less adaptive strategies.

期刊介绍： Addictive Behaviors is an international peer-reviewed journal publishing high quality human research on addictive behaviors and disorders since 1975. The journal accepts submissions of full-length papers and short communications on substance-related addictions such as the abuse of alcohol, drugs and nicotine, and behavioral addictions involving gambling and technology. We primarily publish behavioral and psychosocial research but our articles span the fields of psychology, sociology, psychiatry, epidemiology, social policy, medicine, pharmacology and neuroscience. While theoretical orientations are diverse, the emphasis of the journal is primarily empirical. That is, sound experimental design combined with valid, reliable assessment and evaluation procedures are a requisite for acceptance. However, innovative and empirically oriented case studies that might encourage new lines of inquiry are accepted as well. Studies that clearly contribute to current knowledge of etiology, prevention, social policy or treatment are given priority. Scholarly commentaries on topical issues, systematic reviews, and mini reviews are encouraged. We especially welcome multimedia papers that incorporate video or audio components to better display methodology or findings. Studies can also be submitted to Addictive Behaviors? companion title, the open access journal Addictive Behaviors Reports, which has a particular interest in ''non-traditional'', innovative and empirically-oriented research such as negative/null data papers, replication studies, case reports on novel treatments, and cross-cultural research.
