Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Verdejo-Garcia and colleagues (2012) developed an interoceptive-deficit hypothesis in addiction which we might be able to apply to gambling contexts by testing the coupling of physiological responses to gambling episodes with the subjective reports of these physiological responses. Here we specifically assume that the coupling of those measures changes as a function of gambling involvement. We assume that all participants will show larger mean changes in subjective experience and arousal responses to wins compared to losses. However, we predict that there will be a decoupling of physiological arousal and subjective ratings as a function of gambling involvement. This interoceptive deficit may thus contribute to more persistent gambling (i.e. loss chasing) based on perceived excitement. If we find support for this hypothesis, we further predict that losses, as an aversive outcome, will promote the decoupling between physiological arousal and subjective ratings: the more gambling involvement, the more people report to be aroused by a loss, even though their physiological responses do not support these feelings (Verdejo-Garcia et al., 2012).

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
