The fourth edition (DSM-IV), published in 1994, characterizes pathological gambling as an impulse disorder and lists 10 characteristics of a pathological gambler. Five of the ten must be present for a diagnosis of pathological gambling to be made.

The DSM-IV criteria are generally considered to be more conservative than those used in the South Oaks Gambling Screen (SOGS).
