Historically, gambling was widely perceived as morally questionable, condemned by religious groups. However, contemporary concerns have shifted towards the health repercussions of gambling disorders and broader societal impacts like increased crime and money laundering. Governments, aiming to mitigate social harm, often regulate or directly oversee gambling activities. The global surge in legal gambling has resulted in a substantial rise in its prevalence, popularity, and accessibility in the last two decades. This paper provides a comprehensive overview of global research on interventions for pathological gambling. Through a systematic search on platforms such as EBSCO, PubMed, and Web of Science, 13 relevant records were identified. The revised findings indicate a heightened occurrence of behavioral addictions, linking them to the early onset of gambling issues and their severe consequences. The research emphasizes the active role that clients play in the process of self-directed change and therapy. Therapists recognizing clients as both catalysts for change and potential obstacles can enhance their effectiveness. A common source of resistance arises when clients and therapists are in different stages of the change process, underlining the importance of therapists aligning with clients\u2019 readiness for change. Recognizing the urgent need for a better understanding of this problem in adolescents, this study emphasizes the necessity to tailor prevention and treatment plans based on gender and age-specific requirements.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/ijerph21030346","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,3,15]],"date-time":"2024-03-15T09:32:30Z","timestamp":1710495150000},"page":"346","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":8,"title":["A Systematic Review on Intervention Treatment in Pathological Gambling"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"21","author":[{"given":"Diana","family":"Moreira","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Centro de Solidariedade de Braga\/Projecto Homem, 4700-024 Braga, Portugal"},{"name":"Centre for Philosophical and Humanistic Studies, Faculty of Philosophy and Social Sciences, Universidade Cat\u00f3lica Portuguesa, 4710-362 Braga, Portugal"},{"name":"CPUP\u2014Center for Psychology at University of Porto, Faculty of Psychology and Educational Sciences, University of Porto, 4099-002 Porto, Portugal"},{"name":"Institute of Psychology and Neuropsychology of Porto\u2014IPNP Health, 4000-055 Porto, Portugal"},{"name":"Observatory Permanent Violence and Crime (OPVC), FP-I3ID, 4249-004 Porto, Portugal"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-6876-3723","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Paulo","family":"Dias","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Centro de Solidariedade de Braga\/Projecto Homem, 4700-024 Braga, Portugal"},{"name":"Centre for Philosophical and Humanistic Studies, Faculty of Philosophy and Social Sciences, Universidade Cat\u00f3lica Portuguesa, 4710-362 Braga, Portugal"}]},{"given":"Andreia","family":"Azeredo","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Centro de Solidariedade de Braga\/Projecto Homem, 4700-024 Braga, Portugal"},{"name":"CPUP\u2014Center for Psychology at University of Porto, Faculty of Psychology and Educational Sciences, University of Porto, 4099-002 Porto, Portugal"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-8099-2828","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Anabela","family":"Rodrigues","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Centre for Philosophical and Humanistic Studies, Faculty of Philosophy and Social Sciences, Universidade Cat\u00f3lica Portuguesa, 4710-362 Braga, Portugal"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-0560-1756","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"\u00c2ngela","family":"Leite","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Centre for Philosophical and Humanistic Studies, Faculty of Philosophy and Social Sciences, Universidade Cat\u00f3lica Portuguesa, 4710-362 Braga, Portugal"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2024,3,14]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"617","DOI":"10.1001\/archpsyc.1968.01740050105018","article-title":"Gambling and the gambler: A review and preliminary findings","volume":"18","author":"Bolen","year":"1968","journal-title":"AMA Arch.
