Modeled after the National Institutes of Health, the Institute supports both internal core gambling research and competitively funded external research at educational, medical, and research institutions worldwide. Scientific advisory panels evaluate research proposals and determine through peer review the priority of research to be funded. The Institute is located at the Division on Addictions at Harvard Medical School. The Institutes mission is to alleviate the individual, social, medical and economic burdens caused by pathological gambling through support of rigorous scientific research. Advancing understanding of pathological gambling and related psychiatric disorders, such as substance abuse, will lead to improved methods of diagnosis, intervention, treatment and prevention. Under the agreement with Harvard, the NCRG will provide annual support to the Institute to perform the academic and scientific functions that had previously been performed by the Center. The NCRG continues to fulfill its other mission of expanding public education efforts in the field of pathological and youth gambling.

http://www.miph.org/gambling/bto/btosum96/whocomes.html

Extractions: Pathological gambling is a serious addiction that is indicated by the two cardinal signs: (1) loss of control of one's gambling, and, (2) continued gambling in spite of adverse consequences. It is a small proportion of people who are pathological gamblers and an even smaller percent who come to treatment, but for those affected by pathological gambling it can have devastating effects on both the person with the addiction and their family. Starting in mid-1992, the state of Minnesota began supporting six demonstration treatment programs listed on the following page. Over 1,000 clients have been seen at these six outpatient treatment programs. One of the first questions that comes to mind is "who are these people whose gambling has gotten out of control?" Three out of five clients are men. Their ages range from 19 to 72 with an average age of 39. Most are white and have graduated from high school and over two-thirds are employed full-time. Over half earn less than $20,000 a year.

Extractions: Pathways to Pathological Gambling: Identifying Typologies By Alex Blaszczynski PhD, MAPSs; Director, Impulse Control Research Clinic, School of Psychiatry, University of New South Wales, Sydney, NSW Contemporary psychological models include gambling as: Divergent frameworks, however, can be reconciled if gamblers are accepted as a heterogeneous group (Blaszczynski, 1996) with multi-factorial causes. It cannot be denied that the majority of gamblers seek monetary gain. But some continue to participate and persist because they are inexorably motivated to find relief from boredom, to dissociate and to escape from negative life circumstances, or to modulate negative mood states. The task confronting clinicians is to refine the categorization of problem gamblers into increasingly homogenous subgroups or typologies of gamblers. I have proposed a prototypical model that attempts to integrate biological, personality, developmental, cognitive, learning theory and environmental factors into one model. This model is based on clinical experience and attempts to integrate relevant research findings. It suggests the existence of three major types of gamblers: the gambler who is not pathologically disturbed, the gambler who is emotionally vulnerable, and the gambler whose impulsivity is biologically based.

http://www.camh.net/egambling/issue3/research/research_langewisch.html

Extractions: E-mail: frisch@uwindsor.ca The purpose of this paper is to examine the appropriateness of the current classification of pathological gambling as an Impulse Control Disorder. Controversy over the current categorization is as heated as it has ever been with more research suggesting that gambling is in fact not strictly an impulse-driven behaviour. Research also shows that pathological gambling is similar in presentation and treatment outcome to other addictive behaviours such as alcohol and substance abuse. Given such findings, it is arguable that pathological gambling needs to be re-examined in terms of where it fits into a psychiatric classification system. The Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (3rd ed., 1980) was the first to treat compulsive or pathological gambling as a separate condition labelling it a "mental disorder" (Levy & Feinberg, 1991). The DSM-III-R (1987) categorized pathological gambling as one of several Impulse Control Disorders, vaguely defined as mental disorders characterized by an irresistible impulse to perform harmful acts (McElroy, Hudson, Pope, Keck & Aizley, 1992). People with impulse control disorders have three central characteristics:

Pathological gambling er derimot plassert under "Disorders of adult personality behaviour" "This block includes a variety of conditions and behaviour patterns of clinical significance which tend to be persistent and appear to be the expression of the individual's characteristic lifestyle and mode of relating to himself or herself and others. Some of these conditions and patterns of behaviour emerge early in the course of individual development, as a result of both constitutional factors and social experience, while others are acquired later in life". Pathological gambling er under gruppa "Habit and impulse disorders" (F63). Generelt heter det om denne gruppa at "This category includes certain disorders of behaviour that are not classifiable under other categories. They are characterized by repeated acts that have no clear rational motivation, cannot be controlled, and generally harm the patient's own interests and those of other people. The patient reports that the behaviour is not understood and they are grouped together because of the broad descriptive similarities, not because they are known to share any other important features."

This article traces the roots, causes and phases of pathological gambling. According to 1974 surveys by the gambling commission, 61 percent of the United States populace gambles. This same survey estimated that there are 1.1 million "probable compulsive gamblers" in the U.S. With the establishment of Gamblers Anonymous in 1957, society's view of those who gambled beyond their means changed from a moral issue to a medical/illness issue. Pathological gamblers were found to exhibit certain physiological traits, such as high energy levels, hyperactivity and high tolerance of stress. The sociological view that pathological gamblers have positive rewards convincing them of the benefits of gambling was supported with evidence of a big win early in the career of the pathological gambler. The South Oaks Gambling Screen SOGS: A New Instrument for the Identification of Pathological Gamblers . Henry Lesieur and Sheila Blume. Am J Psychiatry 144:9 , p1184-1188, Sept. 1987. A detailed description of the SOGS and how it was developed. The SOGS appears to be a valid, reliable screening instrument for the rapid screening of alcoholic, drug dependent and other patients for pathological gambling. Previous studies of substance-abusing inpatients had shown clear connections between various forms of substance abuse and the presence of pathological gambling. Other studies found a connection between prison populations and pathological gambling.

Extractions: When do social issues become medical issues? Peter A. Setness, MD VOL 102 / NO 4 / OCTOBER 1997 / POSTGRADUATE MEDICINE Gambling. For some people, a mere mention of the subject conjures up images of glitz and glamor, fun and socializing, a chance at "The Big Win," and all the accoutrements of whatever the good life means to them. But what it really is becoming is the addiction of the '90s, with all the personal and societal costs created by any addictive disease. It's interesting to me that just a generation ago, gambling was almost entirely an illegal, underworld activity, while today it is legal in some form in 48 states (Utah and Hawaii being the only holdouts). In the majority of states, proceeds from gambling (also known by its more innocuous name, gaming) fund everything from environmental causes to school band uniforms. Revenues from legal gambling have grown from about $3 billion on the $17 billion wagered in 1974 to $44 billion on the $550 billion wagered in 1996an increase of 1,500% (1). Lotteries are considered by many to be a legitimate government-sanctioned way of raising money for worthy causes, a type of painless tax. Lottery tickets are available along with food and fuel at practically every corner convenience store and gas station. It's true that legalized gambling has provided jobs and enabled selected groups, such as the Native Americans who own casinos, to better their economic circumstances. In some areas, the resultant revenue stream has allowed such things as reductions in property taxes and improved healthcare for the underserved. Many casinos are building playgrounds, amusement parks, and day-care centers, albeit to entice parents to make a trip to the casino a family activity.

Children can start gambling as early as grade school (11 years of age) and usually sustain their level of gambling over a number of years.
