Abstract: Objectives: Gambling Disorder (GD) frequently co‐occurs with other mental disorders, a clinical condition termed Gambling Dual Disorder (GDD) that is often overlooked. We aimed to develop and validate a brief multidomain questionnaire to assess GDD severity within a dimensional, transdiagnostic framework. Methods: A 55‐item questionnaire was developed and tested across three phases (feasibility, reliability, validity) in 30, 57, and 223 treatment‐seeking adults with DSM‐5‐TR GD. We assessed internal consistency, test–retest reliability, convergent validity against reference instruments (STAI, BDI‐II, ISI, BIS, CAARS, SPIN, MULTICAGE‐CAD‐4, TCI‐R, SDI), ROC‐derived cutoffs, and the latent dimensional structure via exploratory and confirmatory factor analyses, mapped onto the NIMH Research Domain Criteria (RDoC). Results: Internal consistency was excellent (α = 0.93); test–retest reliability was moderate (ICC = 0.29–0.62). Convergent validity was strong (r ≈ 0.51–0.72). ROC‐based cutoffs prioritized sensitivity, with negative predictive values generally above 0.80. A global severity threshold near 1.44 enabled clinical stratification. A four‐factor structure emerged: emotional distress and gambling impairment, impulsivity and behavioral activation, social anxiety and interpersonal suspiciousness, and executive dysfunction with negative self‐perception. Conclusion: The instrument is a reliable, valid, RDoC‐aligned tool for stratifying GDD severity and tailoring integrated interventions. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
