That's very incorrect. As I said earlier, trading can be addictive as well, just like any other thing you can think of. Once you do it uncontrollably, you are addicted to it. But the addiction to trading can never be compared with that of gambling. When have you heard that people and organisations are so worried about trading addiction? It's not even a popular discussion. Or when have you seen regulations mandating a self-exclusion feature on trading platforms? That should speak volumes on its own. People have better control over the addiction of trading than gambling, so we don't compare their magnitude as the same.
There are many articles and videos online that claims that day traders complaining about addiction are getting more. You can watch this video:

The rapid feedback loop of quick wins and losses, coupled with the excitement and adrenaline rush, can create a cycle that resembles gambling addiction.
Scientifically it can be explained with dopamine effect but not it has not be scientifically proven.
