The Desire Thinking Questionnaire (DTQ) is the main instrument used to measure desire thinking, which is the voluntary cognitive elaboration of a desired target on a verbal or imaginal level. Research has shown that this pattern of thinking occurs in different addictive behaviors. This study aimed to adapt the DTQ for use in research on gaming behavior (DTQ-G) and to validate the Polish version of the DTQ-G in a sample of Internet game players. A sample of 635 gamers were examined via the internet. The psychometric analyses of the DTQ-G yielded good results. The questionnaire proved to be a reliable tool for measuring desire thinking related to gaming. Confirmatory factor analysis provided support for the two-factor solution, with both factors (imaginal prefiguration and verbal perseveration) achieving good internal consistency. The Polish version of the DTQ-G has good psychometric properties and can be considered comparable to the original version.
欲望思维问卷（DTQ）是测量欲望思维的主要工具，它是对想要的目标在言语或想象层面上的自愿认知阐述。研究表明，这种思维模式存在于不同的成瘾行为中。本研究旨在将 DTQ 应用于游戏行为的研究中（DTQ-G），并在互联网游戏玩家样本中验证 DTQ-G 的波兰语版本。通过互联网对 635 名游戏玩家进行了测试。对 DTQ-G 的心理测量学分析得出了良好的结果。该问卷被证明是一种可靠的测量与游戏相关的欲望思维的工具。验证性因素分析为双因素模型提供了支持，两个因素（想象预构和言语坚持）都具有良好的内部一致性。DTQ-G 的波兰语版本具有良好的心理测量学特性，可以与原始版本相媲美。
