  • Title: Similarities and Differences in Diagnostic Criterion.
    Author: Wei Z, Zhang X.
    Journal: Adv Exp Med Biol; 2017; 1010():105-132. PubMed ID: 29098671.
    Abstract:
    In this chapter, the main content is to discuss the similarities and differences in diagnostic criteria between substance and non-substance addictions. Firstly, diagnostic criteria of substance addiction were introduced, mainly focused on Diagnostic and Statistical Manual for the Mental Disorders, fifth edition (DSM-5). Then, we described the diagnostic criteria of several non-substance addictions, including gambling disorder, internet addiction, food addiction and hypersexual disorder. Depending on the proof, substance and non-substance addictions have many similarities in symptoms. Though the proposed diagnostic criteria of many non-substance addictions are currently most useful as survey instruments to access the prevalence of the problem, there is little or no validating proof for these diagnostic criteria. Finally, animal model is useful tool for addiction research. But, present animal models for gambling studying do not meet enough diagnostic criteria and could not be regarded as gambling disorder. By introducing the animal models evolved to resemble the diagnostic criteria of substance addiction and two classical paradigms for substance addiction, self-administration and conditioned place preference, we hope it is helpful to improve the validation of animal model of gambling disorder.
