다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

Objective：The purpose of this study was to construct Korean South Oaks Gambling Screen (KSOGS) and test the reliability and validity of KSOGS. Method：Korean South Oaks Gambling Screen (KSOGS) was administered to 36 Gamblers, 35 alcoholics and 109 control groups. The authors tested the reliability of this scale with Cronbach’s alpha and construct validity with Spearman’s correlation coefficient. Result：In the reliability test, Cronbach’s alpha coefficient was .95 and Spearman’s correlation coefficient provided evidence for the construct validity. The difference of means was signified at p<.001 level (gamblers group mean=13.44±4.92, control group mean=0.8±1.55, t=26.246). The score of 5 was suggested as the optimal cut-off score. Conclusion：With the above results, the authors concluded that Korean South Oaks Gambling Screen (KSOGS) was a reliable and valid tool for screening pathologic gambling.
