Problem gambling is considered to be on a continuum and therefore uses a dimensional approach to classification, whereas pathological ganbling is a diagnosable mental disorder that a person either does or does not have and therefore uses a categorical approach to classification. Hope this helps. (:

Ty.

This question was on my SAC. But I've done my Sac anyway, so I'll put this in my note.  :)
