About This Assessment

Twenty Questions from the Anonymous Gamers Society Test

Twenty Questions of Gamblers Anonymous Test - Symptoms and Signs

addiction gaming addiction

This screening tool is designed to help identify behaviors commonly associated with gambling-related problems. The Twenty Questions of Gamblers Anonymous is typically used as a brief self-report checklist to support initial clinical triage and referral decisions.

It consists of 20 items and takes about 4 minutes to complete. Responses are intended to clarify whether gambling may be contributing to functional impairment (e.g., financial strain, interpersonal conflict, or loss of control) and to guide discussion about next steps.

The Twenty Questions of Gamblers Anonymous may also be used in follow-up to monitor perceived change over time and to inform whether a more comprehensive assessment is warranted. Results should be interpreted in context and are not a standalone diagnosis.
