CLEAR ANSWERS TO COMMON QUESTIONS
Frequently Asked Questions
What does this questionnaire assess?
It screens for signs that a close relative or friend may be gambling in an excessive or uncontrolled way. It focuses on observable behaviors and their frequency rather than the amount of money spent.
Who should complete it?
It is intended for family members, partners, and close friends who have regular contact with the person who gambles. It is not designed to be completed by the gambler as a self-report.
What time period should be used when answering?
Use the most recent period that can be recalled reliably, typically the past 6–12 months. If a question refers to a specific event, answer based on whether it occurred at any time during that period.
How should items be answered if information is uncertain?
Select the response that best matches observed facts, not assumptions. If there is no direct knowledge, choose the option that reflects uncertainty or the lowest supported frequency.
How should results be interpreted?
Higher scores indicate a higher likelihood of problematic gambling patterns and a need for further assessment. Results are not a diagnosis and should be considered alongside clinical judgment and additional information.
