青春期通常被描述为一个发育阶段,在此期间,危险行为是常见的。虽然人们对高风险行为(包括酗酒和吸毒、饮食失调和吸烟)给予了相当大的关注,但很少有人关注青少年问题赌博。鉴于DSM标准的问题赌博被指定为冲动控制障碍,青少年问题赌博和冲动之间的关系进行了评估,使用2336名青少年年龄在12至19岁。发现经历问题赌博相关行为的青少年有更多的自我报告的注意力缺陷多动障碍症状。结果进行了讨论青少年冲动和赌博问题之间的关系。
Adolescence has been typically described as a developmental stage during which risky behaviors are common. Although considerable attention has been paid to high-profile risky behaviors, including alcohol and drug abuse, eating disorders, and smoking, little attention has focused on adolescent problem gambling. Given the DSM criteria of problem gambling being designated as an impulse control disorder, the relationship between adolescent problem gambling and impulsivity was assessed by using 2336 adolescents aged 12 to 19 years. Adolescents experiencing problem gambling-related behaviors were found to have a greater number of self-reported Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder symptoms. The results are discussed with respect to the relationship between adolescent impulsivity and gambling problems.
