Implication

Randomized trial investigates neurophysiological and behavioral responses to gambling cues in individuals with Internet Gambling Disorder, suggesting implications for treatment.

Key Points

This study aims to explore the neural, autonomic, and behavioral responses to gambling cues among individuals with Internet Gambling Disorder.
Fifty-seven adults participated, including 28 with IGD and 29 healthy controls.
Participants completed a VR casino task with win, loss, and near-miss events while EEG and GSR were recorded.
Post-task craving levels were evaluated alongside behavioral performance.
The IGD group showed significantly greater P300 amplitudes during win trials, HR 1.5, 95% CI 1.2-1.8, p<0.01.
Enhanced LPP responses after near-miss events in the IGD group, indicating more emotional engagement, p<0.05.
IGD participants reported higher craving post-task compared to controls, suggesting increased vulnerability.
