Methods: the sample consisted of 111 male individuals with a diagnosis of Gambling Disorder, with a mean age of 45 years (SD = 12.2). All participants were evaluated by a comprehensive assessment battery and assigned to CBT groups of 10-14 patients attending 16 weekly outpatient sessions lasting 90 min each. Results: the highest mean pre- and post-therapy differences were recorded for the alcohol risk/dependence group on the obsessive/compulsive and anxiety dimensions of the SCL-90-R. As regards the presence of relapses and dropouts over the course of the CBT sessions, the results show a significant association with moderate effect size: patients with risk consumption or alcohol dependence were more likely to present poor treatment outcomes. Conclusions: alcohol abuse was frequent in GD, especially in patients with low family income and high accumulated debts. High levels of somatization and high overall psychopathology (measured by the SCL-90-R) were associated with increased risk of alcohol abuse. Alcohol abuse was also associated with poor response to treatment. 2016-12-01T08:36:36Z 2016-12-01T08:36:36Z 2016-03-31 2016-12-01T08:36:41Z info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion Reproducció del document publicat a: https://doi.org/10.3389/fpsyg.2016.00465 Frontiers in Psychology, 2016, vol. 7, p. 465 https://doi.org/10.3389/fpsyg.2016.00465 cc-by (c) Jiménez-Murcia, Susana et al., 2016 http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/es info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess Frontiers Media Articles publicats en revistes (Infermeria de Salut Pública, Salut mental i Maternoinfantil)
