Peer-Review Letter[edit]

The article has a strong lead that clearly defines the term giving the reader a strong foundation on which to build should the reader be interested in further investigating the term while still refraining from giving too much information should the reader simply want to understand the term. I was very impressed by the verbiage that was used in the article and the articles ability to stay neutral. A change I would suggest to this article would be to add a cause section as this would help the reader understand how this condition comes to be and help the reader understand the rest of the material discussed in the article. I noticed the lead started to bring in concepts that were discussed in the body of the article and I think this can help a great deal in strengthening the article I am working on! — Preceding unsigned comment added by Aewlarsen (talkcontribs) 05:44, 21 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

And gambling?[edit]

Strikes me as odd that the most obvious example [to me] of this phenomenon, the 'addicted' or 'compulsive' gambler, is overlooked in this article. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 122.151.210.84 (talk) 17:35, 26 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
