Today’s Training

Gambling is an activity in which something of value is risked on the outcome of an event when the probability of winning and losing is less than certain. (Korn and Shaffer 1999).
What is Gambling?
• Disordered gambling is classified as persistent
and recurrent maladaptive gambling behavior that
disrupts personal, family, or vocational pursuits and is not better accounted for by a manic episode.
Source: American Psychiatric Association (APA),
Diagnostic and Statistical Manual,
Revision IV – Text Revision (DSM-IV-TR), (APA, 2000).
• Previously categorized as an impulse control disorder but recently moved to addiction-related disorders in DSM-V
What is Pathological (Disordered) Gambling?
Similarities to Addictions
• In DSM-V – Gambling is listed as addiction related disorder instead of old classification of impulse control disorder. The rationale for this change is that the growing body of scientific literature, especially on the brain’s reward center, has revealed commonalities between pathological gambling and substance-use disorders.
– Loss of control– Preoccupation, urges, pathological “wanting”, cravings,
associated “highs”– Negative impact on major areas of life– Major impacts on mood. Judgment and insight– Tolerance/ Withdrawal– Hereditary nature– Similar treatment success-12 step and cognitive behavioral
therapy
• Gambling in many different forms has long been a part of the history of the world
• 48 states have some form of legalized recreational gambling in the form of Bingo, Lottery, Race Track, Slots, Poker, Table Games, Sports Betting*
• New Frontier -Online Gambling is widespread, yet unregulated, technically restricted and under contention in the US – Regulations change rapidly – Nevada and New Jersey recently passed legislation to allow online, while in-state, is PA next?
*Exception of Utah and Hawaii
Gambling as Pervasive RecreationIncreasing Opportunities
• 85% of U.S. adults have gambled at least once in their lifetimes (60% -80% in any given year )
• 3-5% have a gambling disorder.
(The National Council on Problem Gambling, 2010).
• The majority of the population can gamble without negative consequences
Who Gambles?
• 1% + are estimated to be pathological gamblers (PG)
• 2-3% are considered problem or subclinical gamblers
• Disordered Gambling is a term used to describe the full range of gambling problems.
Betting on a Sure ThingWho has a Problem?
• 2.8-8% of Adolescents and college students exhibit problem and pathological gambling (NORC,1999)
• Student athletes particularly vulnerable• Affects all races – differences are found in the
types of games played, belief about money, finances and self worth,
• Disproportionate number of smokers, substances abusers, mentally ill and poor are problem gamblers
Upping the Ante:Teens and Gambling
Vulnerable Populations
• Adolescents– 5-6% meet criteria– 8-8% at risk for developing
• Elderly– Harder to recoup financial losses
• Military – All branches run oversees slots for recreation and to make money for social events
• Casino Workers– Chicken or the egg?
• Incarcerated– #1 pastime is gambling
• Substance Use Disorders– 6-10x risk for PG
• Lower SES– Problems develop sooner
How much do adolescents gamble?
• 60-90% have gambled• Similar, internationally• Strong pop culture influences• No monitoring system• Societal, parental acceptance
Reasons for gambling
• Win money• Social activity• Excitement• Competition• Fantasy• Family members
• Low risk gamblers know that over time nearly everyone loses. The benefit is in the social and entertainment activity not an expectation of financial gain.
• Low risk gambling has limits on frequency and duration.
• Low risk gambling has predetermined, acceptable limits for losses as in the acceptable and affordable cost of an entertainment activity.
• Does PA have a gambling problem?

• 2002 U.S. legal gaming revenue was $68.7 billion. • In 1999 the National Gambling Impact Study Commission
estimated the annual cost to society of problem gambling was $5 billion.
• It is estimated that in 1997 Americans collectively wagered more than $1/2 trillion (National Research Council, 1999)
• Consumers spend more on legal gaming in the U.S. than most other forms of entertainment combined (1998 Gross Annual Wager Report, 1999)
• Sports betting -38 billion legally wagered-380 billion illegal
Gambling and SpendingHow much is too much?
“Gambling Nation”
• $600 billion wagered annually
• Revenue Comparisons (2005)– Gambling (Legal) $83 Billion per year– DVDs: $22 Billion per year– Cigarettes: $19 Billion per year– NIH Annual Budget: $30 Billion per year

• Pathological gambling is hypothesized to be caused by a complex interplay involving neurobiological, genetic, psychological and social risk factors. (Shaffer et al. 2004c)
• There is evidence of associations between pathological gambling and a variety of neurotransmitters (e.g. noradrenaline, serotonin, glutamate, dopamine and endorphins); (Potenza 2008).
What are the odds you’ll become a problem gambler?
The Brain and Addiction
Dopamine and Nicotine
Dopamine is a brain chemical involved in many different functions including movement, motivation, reward and addiction. Altering dopamine levels alters the normal communication between neurons
Gambling as a Brain Disease
Neurobiology of PG(Neuroanatomy)
• Potenza’s Imaging Studies (PG vs Normals)• Decreased activity in:
– Left ventromedial PFC (Decision-making)– Orbitofrontal cortex (processing of rewards,
dealing with uncertainty, inhibiting responses)– Anterior Cingulate (Decision-making)– Ventral striatum (NA, Limbic system)
Are brains of problem gamblers different?
• Pathological Gamblers exhibit lower activity in prefrontal cortex compared to Non-PGs
• In performing neuro-cognitive tests, PGs showed similar dysfunctions in prefrontal cortex as Methamphetamine addicts
Potenza et al., 2003
This Is Your Brain on Gambling
fMRI of subject anticipating a monetary win in simulated game
fMRI of subject anticipating a small amount of cocaine
Breiter et al., 2001
Differences from Addictions
– No toxicology test to diagnosis it; easier to hide– Behaviors are not due to drug effects (thus, makes it more
open to shame/guilt)– Directly associated with financial gains and losses –
accolades and blame for same behavior– Greater uncertainty of outcome (i.e. anything can happen)– Ego related symptoms- gambling can boost ego or cause
discord with self image– More Socially acceptable
Similarities / Difference
• Immediate gratification• Addictive: preoccupation,
inability to stop, tolerance & withdrawal, progressive
• Cravings & urges• Denial is common• Accompanying depression /
anxiety• Blackouts / brownouts• Disassociation• Mechanism for escape• Dysfunctions in the family
often present
• Gambling more hidden• Impossible to overdose on
gambling• No ingestion of chemicals• Labile financial situation• More unpredictable
outcome• Generally not perceived as a
disease• Fewer resources for
gamblers• Faster progression
• Gambling Disorder can be episodic or chronic, and the course of the disorder can vary by type of gambling as well as life circumstances (Hodgins and el Guebaly, 2004; Slutske, 2006). For example, an individual who wagers problematically only on football games may have Gambling Disorder during football season and not wager at all, or not wager problematically, throughout the remainder of the year. Gambling Disorder may also occur at one or more points in an individual’s life but be absent during other periods. Alternately, some individuals experience chronic Gambling Disorder throughout all or most of their lives.
•
DSM-V Workgroup on Gambling Disorder
35
• A. Persistent and recurrent problematic gambling behavior as indicated by four (or more) of the following in a 12-month period:
1.needs to gamble with increasing amounts of money in order to achieve the desired excitement
2. is restless or irritable when attempting to cut down or stop gambling
3. has repeated unsuccessful efforts to control, cut back, or stop gambling
4. is often preoccupied with gambling (e.g., persistent thoughts of reliving past gambling experiences, handicapping or planning the next venture, or thinking of ways to get money with which to gamble)
DSM-V Criteria
36
5. gambles often when feeling distressed (e.g., helpless, guilty, anxious, depressed)
6. after losing money gambling, often returns another day to get even (“chasing” one’s losses)
7. lies to conceal the extent of involvement with gambling
8. has jeopardized or lost a significant relationship, job, or educational or career opportunity because of gambling
9. relies on others to provide money to relieve desperate financial situations caused by gambling
B. The gambling behavior is not better accounted for by a Manic Episode.
•
DSM-V Criteria
37
With all of the negative consequences why continue to gamble?
• Action – Looking for excitement “rush”
• Escape – Looking for relief from painful emotions or stress Lesieur and Rosenthal (1991).
What are problem gamblers looking for?
Many adolescents think they can become professional
39
• Gambles for excitement , competition• More likely to engage in “skilled” forms of gaming.
(sports betting, poker, etc).• More likely to have early onset of gambling• Longer progression from regular to out of control
(addicted) gambling• More likely to be male• More likely to present narcissistic or antisocial traits
Action Gamblers
Bragging Denial Fallacy of Skill
41
Allure Appeals to Action and Escape Gamblers
42
• Gambles for relief, escape from stress or negative affect
• More likely to engage in passive, luck forms of gambling (Lottery, slots, bingo)
• Shorter progression from regular gambling to out of control behavior
• More likely to be female• More likely to be have experienced chronic
depresssion
Escape Gamblers
Escape - Gambling looks like fun – and it is!
44
• Winning Phase- gamblers experience a big win or series of wins resulting in unreasonable optimism or belief in their ability to win.
• Losing Phase-gamblers begin bragging and thinking about past wins, secretly gambling and begin to chase their losses.
• Desperation Phase- gambling increases in time, frequency and amount. Remorse, alienation and problems increase.
• Hopeless Phase – Gambler no longer believes there is help or hope. Lesieur and Custer (1984).
Problem Gambling Progression: When it stops being fun
Several studies have documented the relationship between problem gambling and specific health issues.
• Mental Health – Gamblers are at increased risk for major depression, anti-social personality disorder, phobias and other mental conditions. Problem gamblers were also identified as being at increased risk for alcohol, nicotine, and other drug abuse. Potenza, (2008).
Upping the ante: What’s the Problem with Problem Gambling?
• Individuals with mental and/or substance use disorders are 17 times more likely to develop pathological gambling
• Pathological Gamblers are 5.5 more likely to have to have had a substance use disorder (Kessler et al. 2008)
• 75% of pathological gamblers have had an alcohol disorder; 38% have had a drug use disorder; 60% have had nicotine dependency (Petry et al. 2005).
• Recreational Gamblers smoke at same rate as general population, 60-80% of pathological gamblers smoke.
Double or Nothing
Genetic and Familial Factors• Research consistently shows higher rates of
pathological gambling in teens whose parents gamble too much (Gupta & Derevensky, 1997; Jacobs, 2000; Wallisch & Liu, 1996)
• Children of problem gamblers have been shown to have higher levels of use for tobacco, alcohol, drug use, and overeating than do their classroom peers (Gupta & Derevensky, 1997)
The Hidden Vigorish
Co-occurring disorders• In treatment-seeking pathological gamblers, 32-
76% of patients evidenced other mental health problems, with anxiety, depression, and suicide being most common.
• Problem gamblers are 4 times more likely to have major depression than non-problem gamblers
• Suicide attempt rates are 17% -24% for problem gamblers (US DHHS,SAMSHA, 2005)
The Hidden Vigorish
• Gambling problems may be major impediments to recovery and contributors to relapse in mental health and substance abuse disorders.
The Hidden Vigorish
• Mental Health, Substance Abuse and Primary Care Professionals and school professionals can help identify, intervene, and refer/treat problem gamblers.
• Treatment and intervention can be incorporated into existing substance abuse and mental health programs.
Beating the System- Hedge Your Bets
• Early onset of gambling experiences/early win• Biochemical factors associated with increased
physiological resting state, increased sensation seeking, increased arousal during gambling.
• Depression• Poor Coping Skills• Substance Use/Abuse
What are the Odds?Risk Factors Marotta and Hynes (2003)
• Accessibility/Awareness*• Lack of community awareness of dangers• Social Acceptance• Family History of Addiction and/or illegal activity• Competitive Home Environment• Family History of gambling activity and attitudes.• Poor Impulse Control*There is much discussion as to the extent of accessibility leading to risk and there
are theories related to exposure and adaptation (Shaffer and Martin) 2010.
Risk Factors for Gambling Problems
Teen Gambling by Derevensky
54
Risk Factors for Adolescents
•Despite not being of legal age to gamble on regulated forms of gambling, adolescents are at risk for developing gambling problems (Derevensky & Gupta, 2004; Dickson, Derevensky & Gupta, 2004; Jacobs, 2004; National Research Council, 1999; Shaffer & Hall, 1996; Shaffer, Hall & Vander Bilt, 1999).
•Early research suggests adolescents perceive their parents to generally approve of their gambling, are not concerned about getting caught gambling, and report that gambling with family members is a fairly common occurrence (Gupta & Derevensky, 1997; Ladouceur & Mireault, 1988; Moore & Ohtsuka, 1997).
Our current state of knowledge concerning youth gambling problems….
• Gambling is more popular amongst males than females (Derevensky, Gupta & Della Cioppa, 1996; Fisher, 1990; Govoni, Rupcich, & Frisch, 1996; Griffiths, 1989; Gupta & Derevensky, 1998a; Jacobs, 2000; Ladouceur et al., 1994; NORC, 1999; NRC, 1999; Stinchfield, Cassuto, Winters, & Latimer, 1997; Volberg, 1994, 1996, 1998; Wynne et al., 1996)
• Probable pathological gamblers are greater risk-takers (Arnett; 1994; Breen & Zuckerman, 1996; Derevensky & Gupta, 1996; Nower, Derevensky & Gupta, 2000; Powell, Hardoon, Derevensky, & Gupta 1999; Zuckerman, 1979, 1994; Zuckerman, Eysenck, & Eysenck, 1978)
• Adolescent prevalence rates of problem gamblers are 2-4 times that of adults (Gupta & Derevensky, 1998a; Jacobs, 2000; Shaffer & Hall, 1996)
Teen Gambling
57
• Adolescent pathological gamblers have lower self esteem compared with other adolescents (Gupta & Derevensky, 1998b)
• Adolescent problem gamblers have higher rates of depression (Gupta & Derevensky, 1998a,1998b; Marget, Gupta & Derevensky, 1999; Nower, Derevensky & Gupta, 2000)
• Adolescent problem gamblers dissociate more frequently when gambling (Gupta & Derevensky, 1998b; Jacobs, Marsten & Singer, 1985)
• Adolescents with gambling problems, ages 14-17, are at heightened risk for suicide ideation and suicide attempts (Gupta & Derevensky, 1998a)
• While adolescents with gambling problems report having a support group, old friends are often replaced by gambling associates (Derevensky, 1999; Gupta, 1999; Gupta & Derevensky, 2000)
• Adolescent problem gamblers remain at increased risk for the development of an addiction or polyaddictions (Gupta & Derevensky,1998a,1998b; Kusyszyn, 1972; Lesieur & Klein, 1987; Nower, Derevensky & Gupta, 2000; Winters & Anderson, 2000)
• Adolescent problem gamblers score higher on excitability, extroversion, and anxiety & lower on conformity and self-discipline (Gupta & Derevensky, 1997b,1998a; Vitaro, Ferland, Jacques & Ladouceur, 1998)
60
• Pathological gamblers and youth in general report early gambling in the home and with family members (Derevensky & Gupta, 1997; Gupta & Derevensky, 1997a, 1997b)
• Problem and pathological gambling has been shown to result in increased delinquency and crime, disruption of familial relationships and decreased academic performance (Gupta & Derevensky, 1998a; Ladouceur & Mireault, 1988; Lesieur & Klein, 1987; Wynne et al., 1996)
• Pathological gamblers report greater major and minor life stressors (Gupta & Derevensky, 2002; Kaufman, Gupta & Derevensky, 2002)
• Problem and pathological gambling has been shown to have greater levels of trait and state anxiety (Ste-Marie, Gupta & Derevensky, 2002)

• Substance Abuse Counselors and Student Assistance Professionals are very well poised to offer identification and help with gambling problems based on understanding of addictions and the link between the disorders.
However:• Substance Abuse and Mental Health counselors
cannot assume knowledge of gambling and must learn the similarities/ differences, language and specifics of gambling , specific screening and treatment tools and resources for help.
