For most people, gambling is a fun activity that does not interfere with their lives. However, for some people, their gambling may become excessive or disordered, and develop into an addiction known as Gambling Disorder (DSM-V). The field of gambling studies has advanced rapidly in the last 30 years and so the present workshop will examine advances in theory and research on disordered gambling. The focus will be on the etiology, maintenance, and treatment of disordered gambling from a biopsychosocial perspective. The workshop will also cover the assessment, diagnosis, prevalence, and comorbid conditions of gambling disorder. Furthermore, the workshop will describe the validity and reliability of different tools used to screen and assess disordered gambling symptomatology. In addition, the workshop will review different treatment approaches for disordered gambling (e.g., 12-step, cognitive-behavioural therapy) with a focus on their effectiveness. Objectives: The etiology and maintenance of disordered gambling from a biopsychosocial perspective.Screening and assessment tools for disordered gambling symptomatologyThe effectiveness of different treatment approaches for disordered gambling.
