Using data from the 5000 adult respondents in the Fourth Social and Economic Impact Study of Gambling in Tasmania, this study aimed to: (1) identify prevalence estimates of AO status and professional help-seeking; (2) establish the socio-demographic and gambling profiles of AOs; (3) extend the growing literature examining negative mental health characteristics experienced by AOs, after accounting for socio-demographic characteristics and other potential sources of harm; and (4) explore the degree to which gender moderates these relationships. Results found that 1 in 20 adults (5.11%, 95% CI: 4.33, 6.01) reported past-year AO status but only 1 in 7 AOs (14.15%, 95% CI: 9.01, 21.52) had ever sought help in relation to another person's gambling (i.e., < 1% of all adults). AOs were significantly more likely than non-AOs to be younger, Australian-born, employed, and living in households with children. They were significantly more likely than non-AOs to report depression symptoms, anxiety symptoms, binge drinking, tobacco use, and drug use, even after controlling for socio-demographics and other potential sources of harm. Finally, they were more likely to report their own gambling participation, problems, and harm but only 2.20% (95% CI: 0.69, 6.78) had ever sought help for their own gambling.

The vast majority of individuals with GD do not use healthcare services for their GD. Since primary care is the first point of contact, exploring barriers to GD treatment is of utmost importance. For this systematic review, we searched five major databases up to October 2024 and included empirical studies describing the practices of general practitioners (GPs) and emergency department physicians regarding GD, as well as their knowledge, attitudes, and beliefs about GD management. We retained six quantitative and six qualitative articles that reported GP data on GD management; however, no studies conducted in emergency departments met our inclusion criteria. The narrative synthesis revealed that none of the GPs routinely screened for GD, only 7-14% treated GD themselves, and approximately half referred these individuals to mental health specialists. While more than half of GPs were knowledgeable about GD-related harms, only 17-38% were confident in their knowledge of GD or care pathways. Although over 65% acknowledged their potential role in managing GD, multiple barriers to care were identified. These included negative attitudes, such as attributing gambling-related harms to individual character weakness, insufficient training on GD screening tools and treatment modalities, and the low prioritization of GD treatment within the healthcare system.

This effect is particularly pronounced for property crimes, with a 5.5 percentage point reduction in burglary risk, while showing no significant impact on violent crimes. Employing distance to regional capitals as an instrumental variable addresses potential endogeneity in betting shop locations, revealing even larger effects in IV specifications. Community cohesion plays a complex moderating role-while areas with stronger social ties generally report more crime, potentially due to better monitoring, the crime-reducing effect of distance from betting shops is amplified in these high-cohesion communities. The results highlight how institutional context shapes the relationship between gambling access and criminal behavior, supporting theories of routine activities and social disorganization rather than strain theory.

The unique mechanisms that precipitate these problems in this group remain unclear. Data from the largest longitudinal cohort study on Australian men's health (the Ten to Men Study) were used to identify the psychosocial, health-related, and gambling-related behavioral predictors of problem gambling severity in 265 young men aged 18-25 years. Hierarchical multiple ordinal logistic regression analyses found these predictors to explain a moderate proportion of variance in problem gambling severity. Four of the 17 predictors included accounted for unique variance. Specifically, higher levels of problem gambling severity were explained by lower levels of anxiety, higher levels of depression, and a higher frequency of prior engagement in sports gambling and fantasy sports gambling. Other psychosocial factors (e.g., masculine norm adherence), health-related behaviors (e.g., problem alcohol use), and gambling-related behaviors (e.g., casino or electronic gaming machines) did not explain any further variance. These findings are the first to longitudinally examine the risk factors for problem gambling severity in Australian men aged 18-25 years. The findings highlight unique developmental and sociocultural factors that may increase young men's vulnerability to problem gambling. Whilst mental health difficulties are a known risk factor for gambling pathology, the identification of sports and fantasy sports gambling frequency as the greatest risks for later gambling problems emphasizes a need for initiatives that can identify and support young men susceptible to this form of gambling.</p>","PeriodicalId":48155,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Gambling Studies","volume":" ","pages":"1119-1144"},"PeriodicalIF":2.2,"publicationDate":"2025-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12361320/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144267697","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
