Résumé
The role of metacognition in gambling disorder (GD) is underexplored. To date, only two studies have investigated the role of metacognitive functioning, but among the adolescent population. The first aim of the current research was to assess and compare adult male gamblers with healthy controls (HCs) in relation to metacognition, impulsivity and emotional dysregulation. The second aim was to identify the variables among metacognition, impulsivity and emotional dysregulation associated with the severity of GD by means of linear regression.A total of 116 adult males (58 with GD and 58 HCs) completed self-report questionnaires on gambling severity, metacognition, emotional dysregulation and impulsivity. A linear regression analysis was run to assess the variables associated with gambling severity.Patients with GD exhibited more impaired scores than HCs in all the psychopathological dimensions investigated. More interestingly, gambling severity was significantly associated with metacognitive differentiation/decentration, difficulty in controlling impulses and non-acceptance of negative emotions.According to our results, the severity of gambling is associated with impaired metacognitive differentiation, high difficulty in controlling impulses and non-acceptance of negative emotions, and these findings can lead to new treatment implications. Interventions focused on metacognition and emotion regulation could help patients with GD to avoid maladaptive strategies such as behavioural addictions and, more specifically, to manage their own emotions. This type of treatment could help gamblers to become more aware of their internal state and learn strategies for adaptively managing emotions through functional metacognitive differentiation.
