Following upon the first clear experimental evidence that states of high arousal accompany gambling in real-life situations, an attempt is made to clarify the implications of this new finding for the development of two possible forms of a neo-Pavlovian or classical conditioning addition to the traditional emphasis on operant conditioning in behavioral explanations of gambling. The explanatory scope and power of one (biological hedonist) version of the model is then demonstrated as applied to both normal regular and pathological gambling. The role of arousal and sensation-seeking factors is considered alongside the roles of other likely components in any possible general explanation of both regular and pathological gambling.
在首次获得明确的实验证据表明在现实生活情境中赌博伴随着高度唤醒状态之后，人们试图阐明这一新发现对于发展两种可能形式的新巴甫洛夫式或经典条件作用的意义，这是在赌博行为解释中对传统强调的操作性条件作用之外的补充。然后展示了该模型的一个版本（生物享乐主义）在应用于正常的经常赌博者和病态赌博者时的解释范围和效力。在对正常和病态赌博的任何可能的一般性解释中，唤醒和寻求刺激因素的作用与其他可能成分的作用一同被考虑。
