Abstract

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.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
