Issues between Addiction and Gender
Authors: Victor B. Stolberg.
Abstract
Addiction is a highly gendered condition. Some addictions have been observed to develop more often and faster in women compared to men. However, much of the literature and research in the field has been disproportionately focused on males, particularly as related to the formulation of diagnostic criteria. There are clear prevalence differences in most addictions by gender, as well as myriad other differences when gender is considered, particularly with regard to treatment.
