    Extractions: (can be changed/cancelled at any time) Over the past 30 years there has been a dramatic increase in the availability of convenient and legal gambling opportunities. Most people can reach a casino in a matter of a few hours, lottery tickets in minutes, or an online gaming site in seconds. Accompanying this proliferation of gambling is a growing understanding that between 5% and 9% of adults experience significant to severe problems due to their gambling activities. These problems have become a real health concern, with substantial costs to individuals, families, and communities. The objective of this book is to provide the clinician – or graduate student – with essential information about problem and pathological gambling. After placing this behavioral addiction and its co-occurring difficulties in perspective, by describing its proliferation, the associated costs, and diagnostic criteria and definitions, the authors present detailed information on a strategy to assess and treat gambling problems in an outpatient setting. They go on to provide clear and easy-to-follow intervention guidelines, including homework assignments, for a brief and cost-efficient cognitive behavioral approach to problem gambling, involving stepped care and guided self-change. Means of countering problems and barriers to change and vivid case vignettes round off this thorough, but compact guide for clinicians.

    http://www.findarticles.com/p/articles/mi_m0CXH/is_2_26/ai_95148617
    
    Extractions: This article explores the association between pathological gambling and alcohol use disorders (AUDs) (i.e., the general name for either alcohol abuse or alcohol dependence). It first examines the separate and overlapping prevalences of PG and AUD as estimated by epidemiological surveys conducted in both community and clinical samples. The article then reviews the processes and mechanisms that might account for the frequent co-occurrence of these disorders. Finally, it examines what the co-occurrence of these disorders implies for treatment and highlights promising areas for future research. Many terms have been used to describe people with problematic gambling behavior (see Cunningham-Williams and Cottler 2001). In this article, PG refers to pathological gambling as diagnosed using DSM diagnostic criteria. The term "disordered gambling behavior" is used to refer to problematic gambling behavior that is not defined by DSM diagnostic criteria. Note, however, that this term is not used as a means of identifying a less serious gambling problem compared with PG. Rather, this term is used to distinguish between problem gambling formally shown to meet the DSM criteria (PG) and all other cases of problematic gambling behavior (disordered gambling behavior).

It's free! Save it. Pathological gambling is a growing problem in American society. Information on pathological gambling is almost nonexistent in the therapeutic recreation (TR) literature despite the fact that the incidence of pathological gambling is most prevalent with individuals who have psychiatric disorders or who abuse substances. Both of these client groups are frequent recipients of TR services. Pathological gambling can be devastating in its consequences to the individuals with the addiction, their families, and their communities. This paper provides information on pathological gambling that is relevant to TR professionals. Diagnostic criteria and sub-types of pathological gamblers are presented. Factors that influence the development, maintenance, and recovery from pathological gambling are discussed. Implications for TR practice are addressed.

    Extractions: Main Parkinson disease (PD) is primarily treated by drugs that restore or improve brain dopaminergic neurotransmission. Brain dopamine also plays a central role in the behavioral reward system of both humans and animals, reinforcing a myriad of both productive and counterproductive behaviors. It has been implicated in mediating the reward of gambling behavior. Several recent reports have linked PD dopamine replacement therapy to pathological gambling.

Pathological Gambling Caused by Drugs Used to Treat Parkinson Disease [archives of neurology, 2005.07.11 All 11 patients with PD [Parkinson's Disease] and pathological gambling were taking therapeutic doses of a dopamine agonist; 3 of these patients were not treated with levodopa. In 7 patients, pathological gambling developed within 3 months of starting to take or escalating the dose of the agonist; in the other 4 with a longer latency, gambling resolved after the agonist use was discontinued. Pramipexole dihydrochloride was the agonist in 9 of 11 cases in our series and 10 of 17 in the literature (68% in total). then again, pramipexole dihydrochloride is a white powder, so maybe it's not worth the effort to aerosolize... nah. we're talking about gambling. it's worth the chance...

FAQ Definitions Types of Problem Gamblers Phases of Problem Gambling In referring to gambling, the terms "pathological" and "compulsive" are often used interchangeably. Compulsive gambling is the layman's term and is used by Gamblers Anonymous For both the action seekers and the escape To be diagnosed as a pathological gambler, an individual must meet at least five of ten diagnostic criteria Four phases It is not bad luck, greed or poor money management that makes one a pathological gambler. Some individuals sought help in the early phase of their gambling career, while they were still winning. They were astute enough to become concerned about their intense physical reactions or the effect their preoccupation with gambling was having on the other aspects of their life. One need not lose everything to be a pathological gambler, nor is it necessary to think about gambling every day. Some gamblers are binge gamblers, who do their damage sporadically. Some pathological gamblers only gamble compulsively at one type of gambling. They may not be interested in other types, or may even gamble at them to support their addiction.

Studying pathological gamblers and controls during a guessing game using functional magnetic resonance imaging, we observed a reduction of ventral striatal and ventromedial prefrontal activation in the pathological gamblers that was negatively correlated with gambling severity, linking hypoactivation of these areas to disease severity.

    Extractions: VIII. Why do People Gamble Too Much?Pathological and Problem Gambling To many people, gambling is a simple form of entertainment. But to some others, it becomes an uncontrollable behavior. Many terms are used to describe a person who has a problem with gambling, including pathological gambler, gambling addict, compulsive gambler, or problem gambler. All of these terms are used to describe a person for whom gambling has become more than an innocent diversion. Some of these terms lack specific meaning. This report will follow the literature and use "problem gambling" to mean an umbrella term to describe a situation where gambling activity disrupts one's life, but the extent of the disruption is not defined. Problem gambling includes pathological gambling, which is a more severe condition and is a term with specific medical meaning. Pathological gambling is recognized as a medical disorder by the American Psychiatric Association and has elements of addiction similar to alcohol and drug addiction. It describes a gambler who loses control over gambling behavior with damaging personal, social and financial effects. Very often, the pathological gambler suffers from legal problems. Because the gambler is losing control it is referred to by mental health practitioners as an impulse disorder. Pathological gambling is a progressive disease, meaning that the symptoms will get worse over time. Mental health professionals see it as a complex disease often seen in conjunction with other disorders including depression and chemical dependency.
