Sažetak
The current study investigated the association of psychopathic traits with gambling-related problems, substance use, gambling, and substance versatility in Croatian sample of non-referred boys and girls. Results of the regression analyses showed that the impulsive-irresponsible (II) behavioural style fully mediated the relationship between affective and interpersonal psychopathic traits and substance use, substance versatility, and gambling versatility. Significant interactions emerged that provide evidence of gender as a moderator in the relationship between psychopathic traits and gambling-related problems and gambling versatility. Specifically, the II dimension exercised a stronger in uence for boys compared with girls. Novel to our study was the finding that the grandiose and manipulative interpersonal style conferred protection from gambling-related impairment in girls, whereas conferred risk in boys. Of note, in groups of girls, the simple slopes were small and nonsignificant.
