The current study was constructed to examine the similarities and differences in the quality of life of patients with kleptomania and pathological gambling (PG). Thirty patients with kleptomania, 43 with PG, and 30 normal control subjects were assessed with the Quality of Life Inventory that assesses self-reported satisfaction with life. Both patients with kleptomania and PG had significantly lower quality of life scores than normal control subjects ( t = 7.32; df = 58; P < .001; t = 7.32; df = 71; P < .001, respectively). These results suggest that patients with kleptomania and pathological gamblers have notably poor quality of life.
本研究旨在探讨偷窃癖患者与病理性赌博(PG)患者生活质量的异同。使用生活质量量表对30名偷窃癖患者、43名病理性赌博患者和30名正常对照者进行评估,该量表用于评估自我报告的生活满意度。偷窃癖患者和病理性赌博患者的生活质量得分均显著低于正常对照者(分别为t = 7.32;自由度 = 58;P <.001;t = 7.32;自由度 = 71;P <.001)。这些结果表明,偷窃癖患者和病理性赌博患者的生活质量明显较差。
