Abstract:

Pathological gambling has been proposed to belong to the obsessive-compulsive spectrum of disorders. Disorders on this spectrum are thought to share similar clinical features, neurobiology, and responses to treatment as Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder. A total of 18 studies were included in a meta-analysis to assess the strength of the association between these disorders. A strong relationship (effect size = 1. 01) was found between pathological gambling and obsessive-compulsive traits. A weak relationship was found between pathological gambling and Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (.07) and Obsessive-Compulsive Personality Disorder (effect size = .23). These results suggest pathological gambling and Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder are distinct disorders. However, pathological gamblers do appear to show high rates of obsessive-compulsive traits relative to controls. These findings are only moderately supportive of the inclusion of pathological gambling within the obsessive-compulsive spectrum of conditions.

Abstract:

OBJECTIVE: Pathological gambling is proposed as a participant of an impulsive-compulsive spectrum related to obsessive-compulsive disorder. This study aims to contrast pathological gambling and obsessive-compulsive disorder regarding course, comorbidity, and personality, hence testing the validity of the impulsive-compulsive spectrum. METHOD: 40 pathological gambling and 40 obsessive-compulsive disorder subjects matched to 40 healthy volunteers according to gender, age, and education were assessed with the Temperament Personality Questionnaire and the Barratt Impulsiveness Scale. Psychiatric patients were also assessed for course and comorbidity data. RESULTS: Obsessive-compulsive disorder presented an earlier onset, but the full syndrome took longer to evolve. Pathological gambling had higher comorbidity with substance-related disorders, and obsessive-compulsive disorder higher comorbidity with somatoform disorders. Gamblers scored higher than controls on the sub-factors Impulsiveness, Extravagance, Disorderliness, and Fear of Uncertainty. Obsessive-compulsive patients scored higher than controls on Fear of Uncertai-nty. Impulsiveness, Extravagance, and Disorderliness significantly correlated with the Barratt Impulsiveness Scale total score, Fear of Uncertainty did not. DISCUSSION: The course and comorbidity profiles of pathological gambling resemble an addiction and differ from obsessive-compulsive disorder. Pathological gambling combines impulsive and compulsive traits. Impulsivity and compulsivity should be regarded as orthogonal constructs, and as drives implicated in volition aspects of behavioral syndromes.

Abstract:

Gambling disorder, gambling-related cognitive biases, compulsive buying, and materialistic values lead to impaired functioning in important areas of life. The aims of the present longitudinal study are (1) to evaluate the change produced after one year in those mentioned variables and (2) to examine the gender role in these changes and to analyze the mediational mechanisms among the variables of the study. The sample was composed of 182 adolescents (103 females and 79 males) from secondary education Spanish institutions who completed self-administered questionnaires. Structural equation modeling has been used to explore associations between the different variables. Our results show significant decreases in compulsive buying, materialism, and cognitive biases related to gambling after one year. Gambling disorder severity was directly related to cognitive distortions of gambling and being a man. Compulsive buying was associated with older age and the female gender. Materialism was associated with compulsive buying and the male gender. In conclusion, gambling disorder, gambling-related cognitive biases, compulsive buying, and materialistic values change over time in different ways, according to gender. The understanding of gambling disorder and compulsive buying in adolescents could potentially lead to early prevention and treatment programs for the specific needs of gender and age.

Abstract:

As part of research conducted for the New York State Office of Mental Health, New York members of ALMACA were sent a questionnaire inquiring into their experiences with compulsive gamblers. Out of 86 EAPs and providers replying to the survey 64% had identified compulsive gamblers. These gamblers represented 1.4% of the total client population. Fifty-nine percent of the respondents that had identified compulsive gamblers (71% of EAPs and 15% of service providers) made referrals to outside treatment facilities with pathological gambling as a primary (or secondary) problem. Seventy-eight percent of the organizations that had someone attend training/education sessions about compulsive gambling said they identified compulsive gambling employees in contrast with 45% of those that had not attended education/training sessions. Respondents indicated a need for basic, as well as advanced, training/education about compulsive gambling. There was also a recognition of the inadequacy of the existing level of treatment services, education and training in the state. The majority of the pathological gamblers presently seen by the New York State ALMACA members are addicted to chemicals, as well as gambling. This is in contrast with studies indicating that most compulsive gamblers are not dually addicted. The implications of these findings are discussed in terms of theory and application.

Abstract:

Introduction.Gambling behaviour appears as repetitive and difficult to resist and seems to be aimed at neutralizing or reducing negative feelings such as anxiety and tension, confirming its similarities with the obsessive-compulsive spectrum.Aims.Estimating the prevalence of gambling behaviour in an Italian sample and assessing the effects of sociodemographic variables and the correlations between gambling behaviour and obsessive-compulsive features.Methods.A sample of 300 Italian subjects was evaluated based on gambling behaviours and obsessive-compulsive attitudes. The assessment was carried out in small centers in Italy, mainly in coffee and tobacco shops, where slot machines are located, using theSouth Oaks Gambling Screen(SOGS) and the MOCQ-R, a reduced form ofMaudsley Obsessional-Compulsive Questionnaire.Results.A negative correlation between SOGS and MOPQ-R, with reference to thecontrolandcleaningsubscales, was evidenced in the majority of the examined subjects. Both evaluating instruments showed reliability and a good discriminative capacity.Conclusions.Our study evidenced that the sample of gamblers we analysed did not belong to the obsessive-compulsive disorders area, supporting the validity of the model proposed by DSM-5 for the classification of PG. These data confirm the importance of investing in treatments similar to those used for substance use disorders.

Abstract:

Impulse-control disorders (ICDs) are conditions, the hallmark of which is difficulty with emotional and behavioural self-regulation. Acknowledged in Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, third edition (DSM-III) as ‘disorders of impulse control not elsewhere classified’, the category was reorganized in DSM-5 as ‘disruptive, impulse-control, and conduct disorders’. This chapter discusses oppositional defiant disorder (ODD), intermittent explosive disorder, kleptomania, pyromania, and gambling disorder. Several non-DSM conditions are also included: compulsive shopping, Internet addiction, and compulsive sexual behaviour. The latter conditions are often referred to as behavioural addictions, a category for disorders that appear to share commonalities with traditional substance use disorders but are not associated with the use of drugs or alcohol.

Abstract:

Abstract Several seemingly distinct syndromes, upon close scrutiny, share the common feature of recurrent, intrusive thoughts or actions. These syndromes include obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD), Gilles de la Tourette’s disorder (GTS), trichotillomania, kleptomania, pathologic gambling, some extreme forms of hypochondriasis (particularly when limited to one or a few recurrent health concerns), hoarding, some sexual disorders (e.g., exhibitionism), self-mutilation behavior, and some patients with substance abuse, anorexia nervosa (and perhaps bulimia), and posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD). Table 14.1 lists OCD syndromes.

Abstract:

Dopamine agonists are synthetic medications that stimulate dopamine receptors. They are commonly used for treatment of Parkinson’s disease and in lower doses for restless legs syndrome. This drug class includes pramipexole (Mirapex), ropinirole (Requip), and the rotigotine patch (Neupro). These drugs have special properties, with unique adverse effects that are not intuitively associated with the drug. Hence, a brief chapter is devoted to these side effects. If the patient is not taking one of these medications, this chapter may be skipped. Several years ago clinicians recognized that pramipexole and ropinirole were associated with the development of pathologic gambling. Insidiously, a minority of people who were prescribed these medications began experiencing the desire to gamble, such as at casinos or online. For some, this was an exacerbation of prior tendencies, but for others this desire came out of the blue, with no prior gambling history. Other types of compulsive pathologic behaviors soon were also recognized in some people treated with these drugs. This included inappropriate hypersexual behavior (extramarital affairs, pornography) and compulsive spending, eating, drinking, or smoking. In many people, this behavior was completely out of character. The common element was the initiation of pramipexole or ropinirole. The behaviors did not develop immediately, but insidiously became apparent after the medication was slowly escalated into the therapeutic range. Patients and family were often oblivious to the behavior or relation to the drug until specifically asked about it in the doctor’s office. The common theme among these compulsive behaviors is that they are inherently rewarding human experiences. It became recognized that use of these dopamine agonist drugs by some people was associated with a pathologic drive to excessively engage in such activities as gambling, sex, eating, or spending. For affected people, this began to dominate their thoughts and actions. Who would think that a drug could drive specific hedonistic or rewarding behaviors? Experience in the clinic and published evidence, however, corroborates this risk. The two primary agents that have been implicated are pramipexole (Mirapex) and ropinirole (Requip). The rotigotine patch has also been associated with such behaviors, but apparently less frequently.

Abstract:

The Internet is an integral part of human society and everyday life of most people, and it may be used for satisfying various human needs. The Internet has changed the way we process information, learn, talk, behave, etc. However, when something is used too much, it always brings some consequences with it, one being Problematic Internet Use, which is an umbrella term that encompasses a wide range of repetitive disabling behaviours, such as Internet video gaming, gambling, cyberpornography addiction, compulsive online shopping, social networking problematic use, and so on. In this paper, different views on Internet use in modern society will be considered, from ideas (over)emphasising its harmful effects on users’ health, to ideas ignoring these warnings. We will be discussing the advantages of ICT use, as well as characteristics of the Internet, which may ease a compulsive use or preoccupation with online content and activities. We will particularly focus on classification criteria for specific online behaviours into the category of problematic use or Internet addiction, and finally we will point to some of the negative effects of PIU, as well as types of such Internet-related problems.
