我们试图探索心理社会压力暴露和病理性赌博(PG)之间的潜在联系。PG患者在日常应激问卷(DSI)上的得分显著高于健康人。PG患者还表现出其他更高的压力测量，包括情绪状态概况，斯皮尔伯格状态-特质焦虑问卷，汉密尔顿抑郁评定量表和贝克抑郁问卷。多元回归分析显示，只有DSI影响分数是赌博欲望的独立预测因子。这些发现支持心理社会压力在PG过程中的作用，并表明前者与赌博冲动的联系相对特定于DSI评估的应激事件。(Am J Addit 2010；00：1-8)。
We sought to explore a potential link between psychosocial stress exposure and pathological gambling (PG). Patients with PG displayed significantly higher scores on the daily stress inventory (DSI) than did healthy subjects. PG patients also displayed other heightened measures of stress, including the profile of mood states, the Spielberger state-trait anxiety inventory, the Hamilton rating scale for depression and the Beck depression inventory. Multiple regression analysis revealed that only the DSI impact score was an independent predictor of gambling urges. These findings support the role of psychosocial stress in the course of PG and suggest that the former association with the urge to gamble is relatively specific to stressful events assessed with the DSI.
