En este artículo se hace un análisis de las recaídas en el ámbito del juego patológico. Se revisan las variables precipitantes de la recaída, así como los predictores de los fracasos terapéuticos. Se propone un modelo cognitivo-conductual de intervención y se analizan los resultados obtenidos. Los estudios futuros deben hacer frente a nuevos retos, tales como centrarse en el objetivo del juego controlado como alternativa terapéutica o diseñar programas específicos para retener a los pacientes en el tratamiento y controlar las tasas de abandono.

Abstract
There is a need for better understanding of relapse in pathological gambling and this review attempts to do so. There is an analysis of situations that trigger the relapse, as well as of the predictors of therapeutic failure. Amodel of cognitive-behavioral intervention is proposed and the outcome of the program is analyzed. Future studies need to address new challenges in the current pathological gambling literature, such as to focus on the issue of responsible gambling as a therapeutic aim or to design interventions to improve compliance and reduce dropout rates during the psychological treatment of patients.
