LxAddictions24: Behavioural Addictions

LxAddictions24: Behavioural Addictions

In this episode, Dr Elle Wadsworth talks to Professor Zsolt Demetrovics from the International Society for the Study of Behavioural Addictions (ISSBA) about his work as a co-producer for Lisbon Addictions. Elle and Zsolt discuss the behavioural addictions track at Lisbon Addictions this year. The track will include presentations relating to gambling and gaming disorders as well as compulsive sexual behaviour disorder as those officially recognised by ICD-11. The track also includes compulsive shopping, problematic internet use, compulsive pornography use, work addiction, exercise addiction, problematic smartphone use and the ever increasing research on potentially addictive behaviours.

Zsolt then gives his advice for first time attendees at Lisbon Addictions.

“Lisbon addictions offers a lot....pure research and basic research but also prevention, treatment, policy issues. So, I think everyone can find something that fits to their interest.”

Professor Zsolt Demetrovics is the president of the ISSBA, chair of the Centre of Excellence in Responsible Gaming at the University of Gibraltar and head of the Addiction Research group at the ELTE Eötvös Loránd University, Budapest, Hungary.

Dr Elle Wadsworth is a researcher based at the University of Bath and at RAND Europe.
