This study tested whether the Problem Gambling Severity Index (PGSI) measures the same underlying construct consistently across different demographic groups and gambling types, using a nationally representative U.S. sample of 2,972 people.

Younger adults, sports wagerers, and online gamblers reported higher problem gambling severity, which has implications for clinical and scientific use of the PGSI as the gambling industry expands.
