A Better Understanding of the Association Between Problem Gambling and Psychotic Disorders in Young Adults: a New Path Towards Recovery
In Brief
An observational study evaluating Antipsychotic use, Psychiatric comorbidities, and 3 other interventions for Gambling Disorder and Psychotic Disorders. Completed, enrolled 520 participants across 2 sites.
Detailed Summary
The aims of this propsective cohort study are to get a better understanding of the association between problem gambling and psychotic disorders among young adults with first-episode psychosis. The main questions to be answered are: 1. What is the incidence of problem gambling in this population? 2. What are the predictors of problem gambling in this population? To do so, putative predictors of problem gambling will be analyzed using Cox regression models: * Sociodemographics (e.g., age, gender identity, ethnicity, level of education, employment); * Psychiatric comorbidities (e.g., substance use disorders, cluster B personality disorders); * Antipsychotic use (first/second-generation, third-generation \[aripiprazole, brexpiprazole, cariprazine\]); * Prior gambling history.
