內容簡介: |
The current research represents the first study to report prevalence rates of comorbid psychiatric disorders among Chinese pathological gamblers in Hong Kong. This study will also provide valuable data on the temporal relationships between psychiatric disorders and pathological gambling, severity of gambling problems and psychiatric symptoms, and level of functional impairment among Chinese treatment-seeking pathological gamblers in Hong Kong. By presenting the prevalence estimates and clinical features of pathological gamblers, this research will be able to provide useful information for clinical development and will guide further studies in a culturally appropriate context. |
