Abstract

This study aims at researching the cognitive change processes of a natural recovery group from gambling addiction, by examining the change patterns of cognitive and motive factors(irrational gambling belief, gambling attitude, gambling motives for monetary, excitement and avoidance) according to time, by investigating an adult natural recovery group whose gambling problem level was decreased without receiving treatment/counseling service within a year, and a maintenance group whose gambling problem level was maintained at a problematic/dangerous level. The research participants participated in two annual online surveys measuring their CPGI, irrational gambling belief and gambling motive, and the data of 514 adult online panels were analyzed. By taking the matter of maintaining a gambling problem as a between-group variable, time as a within-group variable, and an irrational gambling belief, gambling attitude, and monetary motive, excitement motive, avoidance motive as dependent variables, an analysis of mixed-variance was conducted. In the results, the interaction between time and group was significant for irrational gambling belief, gambling attitude, monetary motive, excitement motive, and avoidance motive. In the results of analyzing the simple main effects of each variable, the irrational gambling belief, and monetary motive, excitement motive, and avoidance motive were significantly decreased in the natural recovery group. Lastly, the application of the cognitive variables having an effect on the natural recovery, for the prevention of a gambling problem, was discussed.
