We used the South Oaks Gambling Screen (SOGS), adapted for telephone interview, to assess one-half of the sample; the other one-half was evaluated with the Canadian Problem Gambling Index (CPGI). In the study's second phase, we compared the classifications obtained from these screening instruments with classifications obtained by a psychologist using a semistructured clinical telephone interview.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>The results indicate that the prevalence of pathological gambling in 2002 (at which time 0.8% of the adult population were classified as probable pathological gamblers) did not differ from the proportion obtained in 1996 (1.0%), despite the significant decrease in gambling participation in 2002 (81% vs 90% in 1996). The most popular gambling activities were buying lottery tickets (68%), participating in fundraising draws (40%), gambling in casinos (18%), playing cards with family or with friends (10%), playing bingo (9%), and playing video lotteries (8%). The findings obtained from the SOGS and the CPGI revealed that the 2 instruments perform similarly when identifying pathological gambling prevalence. However, the results of the semistructured clinical telephone interviews differed from the results obtained with the screening instruments: 82% of the gamblers initially identified as probable pathological gamblers by the SOGS or the CPGI were not confirmed by a clinical interview.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>The discrepancy between the results of the screening questionnaires and the clinical evaluation is significant, and this difference needs to be addressed before further cross-sectional or longitudinal studies are conducted.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1177\/070674370505000804","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2017,1,5]],"date-time":"2017-01-05T21:43:33Z","timestamp":1483652613000},"page":"451-456","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":70,"title":["Prevalence of Pathological Gambling in Quebec in 2002"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"50","author":[{"given":"Robert","family":"Ladouceur","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Professor, \u00c9cole de psychologie, Universit\u00e9 Laval, Quebec City, Quebec"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Christian","family":"Jacques","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Researcher, \u00c9cole de psychologie, Universit\u00e9 Laval, Quebec City, Quebec"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Serge","family":"Chevalier","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Sociologist, Institut national de sant\u00e9 publique du Qu\u00e9bec, Quebec City, Quebec"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Serge","family":"S\u00e9vigny","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Researcher, \u00c9cole de psychologie, Universit\u00e9 Laval, Quebec City, Quebec"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Denis","family":"Hamel","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Statistician, Institut national de sant\u00e9 publique du Qu\u00e9bec, Quebec City, Quebec"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"179","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2005,7,1]]},"reference":[{"key":"bibr1-070674370505000804","volume-title":"Loto-Qu\u00e9bec 1998\u20131999 annual report","year":"1999"},{"key":"bibr2-070674370505000804","volume-title":"Loto-Qu\u00e9bec 1995\u20131996 annual report","year":"1996"},{"key":"bibr3-070674370505000804","volume-title":"Measuring gambling and problem gambling in Ontario","author":"Wiebe J","year":"2001"},{"key":"bibr4-070674370505000804","volume-title":"Gambling in Ontario: A report from a general population survey on gambling-related problems and opinions","author":"Ferris J","year":"1995"},{"key":"bibr5-070674370505000804","volume-title":"Problem gambling study: Final report.
