Résumé :
This study compared psychiatric outpatients with and without lifetime gambling problems on clinical disorder and personality disorder scales, and the relationship of these scales with involvement in gambling. Avoidant and compulsive personality features were significantly related to gambling problem status. The Self-Defeating and Dysthymic Disorder scales were positively associated with gambling involvement. The Alcohol Dependence scale was predictive of gambling involvement for males only. Findings are somewhat consistent with the literature examining comorbidity in pathological gamblers seeking treatment, although no association was found with antisocial personality disorder.
