Gambling's impact on a couple's relationship is an essential element in the gambling disorder (GD). Gamblers tend to lie to their partner to conceal the extent of their gambling problems and debts, which can lead to a serious relational transgression for the couple. One promising avenue is a couple treatment focusing on forgiveness processes. The objective of this study was to determine whether the Integrative Couple Treatment for Pathological Gamblers (ICT-PG) with an emphasis on forgiveness processes helped couples to enhance these processes. A Single-Case Research Design (SCRD) was used with three couples in which one of the members had a GD. The results highlight the importance of jointly analyzing the forgiveness processes between the gamblers and their partner, which constantly influenced each other. These promising results illustrate the relevance of integrating forgiveness processes in treatment for couples where one of the members has a GD.
赌博对夫妻关系的影响是赌博障碍（GD）的一个重要因素。赌徒往往会向伴侣撒谎，隐瞒其赌博问题和债务的程度，这可能导致夫妻间严重的关系越界。一个有前景的途径是专注于宽恕过程的夫妻治疗。本研究的目的是确定强调宽恕过程的病态赌徒综合夫妻治疗（ICT-PG）是否有助于夫妻加强这些过程。采用单案例研究设计（SCRD），对三对夫妻进行研究，其中一方患有赌博障碍。结果突出了共同分析赌徒与其伴侣之间宽恕过程的重要性，这些过程相互影响。这些有前景的结果说明了在一方患有赌博障碍的夫妻治疗中纳入宽恕过程的相关性。
