Abstract

In this paper we examine the nature of calls for the Ontario Problem Gambling Helpline from June 2021 to Jan 2023 to determine if the increased marketing of online and sports gambling has changed the nature of calls to the helpline. An interrupted time series model comparing the monthly calls before and after the expansion of online gambling and advertising (April 2023), found a significant effect. Calls related to the other games examined did not have a significant interrupted time series effect of from the expansion and advertising of online gambling. The results of this analysis clearly indicate an association between the expansion of legalized gambling and gambling advertising with the number of people who call the helpline for problem related to online gambling.

简要报告:安大略省在线博彩业的崛起。
在本文中,我们研究了 2021 年 6 月至 2023 年 1 月期间安大略省问题赌博求助热线的来电性质,以确定在线赌博和体育赌博营销的增加是否改变了求助热线的来电性质。一个间断时间序列模型比较了在线赌博和广告扩大之前和之后(2023 年 4 月)的每月来电情况,发现了显著的影响。与其他游戏相关的来电并未因在线赌博的扩大和广告宣传而产生明显的间断时间序列效应。分析结果清楚地表明,赌博合法化和赌博广告的扩大与因在线赌博问题而拨打帮助热线的人数之间存在关联。
