People who are highly impulsive are more likely to continue gambling despite experiencing losses, leading to problem gambling. — UnsplashStudies indicate that around 4.4% of the Malaysian population engages in high-severity problem gambling, with an additional 10.2% engaging in moderate-severity gambling.
As more people grapple with the consequences of gambling, there is more focus on understanding the psychological factors that might explain why certain people are more susceptible to gambling problems than others. Research has shown that adolescents with high impulsivity are three times more at risk of developing problem gambling, compared to their low-impulsivity peers during emerging adulthood.
Understanding and managing impulsivity from a young age can reduce the likelihood of developing problem gambling and decrease the propensity for other addictive behaviours.Gambling-related cognitive distortions also play a significant role in fostering problem gambling. Cognitive reappraisal is an emotion control skill that involves changing the way one thinks about a situation to alter its emotional impact.Some research suggests that cognitive reappraisal can be beneficial in reducing problem gambling as it enables people to manage their gambling-related thoughts and emotions more effectively.
Among these gamblers, cognitive reappraisal might serve as a tool to rationalise continued gambling behaviour.
