Given the central role of perseverative chasing in problem gambling, the present study sought to find evidence for three hypothesized
components of perseveration in problem gamblers: reward-sensitivity dominance, deficient inhibition of reward-seeking behavior,
and working memory deficits. This was the first attempt to examine working memory deficits in problem gamblers using a conditional
association task, which is associated with posterior-dorsolateral prefrontal functioning. In a sample that was not in treatment,
and representative in terms of comorbidity, problem gamblers performed significantly worse on the conditional association
working memory tasks after controlling for general memory function, compared to demographically-matched controls. This is
significant because deficits in the dorsolateral prefrontal region have been consistently associated with perseveration, which
suggests that problem gamblers’ perseverative chasing may be associated with a working memory deficit. Problem gamblers were
not significantly higher than at-risk gamblers in terms of reward-sensitivity dominance (measured as a personality trait in
terms of extraversion) suggesting that it may not be specifically associated with problem gambling. Sensation-seeking was
also not associated with problem gambling in a sample that corrected for the methodological problems of previous studies which
examined it. The need for gambling research to focus specifically on the perseverative inability to stop gambling is emphasized,
and the present findings of specific working memory deficits in problem gamblers suggest the need for further examination
of working memory as a potential risk factor for problem gambling. We propose that subsequent studies examine working memory
in terms of the self-regulatory capacity for goal maintenance where attention must specifically be allocated to resist interference. 相似文献

The topic of this paper is literacy education and reading engagement in multilingual classes. What facilitates reading engagement in the language of instruction in multilingual classes? In this paper, we analyze reading engagement in a literature-based literacy program in Norway (2007–2011). The design was a research and development project in which teachers, researchers, and librarians collaborated within literacy education. We present pedagogical interventions within the project and analyze subsequent reading engagement among the students, based on a survey. The survey documented that the overwhelming majority of students were engaged readers two years into the project, measured by the students’ amount and frequency of voluntary reading, their attitudes towards reading and library use. The findings indicate that reading engagement in the language of instruction among both first- and second-language learners was facilitated by literature-based literacy education, nonsegregated educational provisions and use of library resources. The study shows that literature-based literacy education may reduce possible negative effects of low socioeconomic status and linguistic minority background on reading engagement in the language of instruction. This requires literacy education, which gives students extensive access to books, voluntary reading of fiction and facts and sharing of literacy events and library use. 相似文献
