This research examined factors that might differentiate young adults with gambling disorder (GD) who committed crimes from those who did not. Participants were 808 young adults seeking treatment for GD. Among these participants, 36% had committed crimes due to gambling. The results showed that being younger, unemployed, and having higher psychopathology increased the risk for criminal activity. Also, people with more severe GD symptoms, greater debts, and a less adaptive personality profile were more likely to commit crimes.
