摘要

摘要从进化的角度来看,生命史策略已被用于解释冲动、寻求感觉和冒险倾向等行为和特征的个体差异。本研究旨在扩展基于心理测量方法的LH策略的应用,以研究支持保护性赌博信念和采取负责任赌博(RG)行为的个体差异。我们在中国澳门进行了一项电话调查,并采用两阶段整群随机抽样方法获得了一个居住在社区的中国成年人样本(N=697)。回归分析表明,LH策略较慢的个体表现出更高水平的保护性赌博信念和RG行为。正如假设的那样,保护性赌博信念与RG行为呈正相关;此外,我们发现它对LH策略和RG行为之间的关系具有部分中介作用。我们的研究结果表明,在理解采用RG行为的个体差异和设计有针对性的措施来促进RG依从性时,可以考虑LH策略。本研究还强调了保护性赌博信念在探索LH策略和RG行为之间联系的潜在机制方面的作用,指出了培养保护性赌博信仰以进一步提高RG依从性的潜在途径。

Fast or slow: applying life history strategies to responsible gambling adherence
ABSTRACT From the evolutionary perspective, life history (LH) strategies have been used to account for individual differences in behaviors and traits such as impulsivity, sensation seeking, and risk-taking propensity. The present study aimed to extend the application of LH strategies based on the psychometric approach to study individual differences in endorsing protective gambling beliefs and adopting responsible gambling (RG) behaviors. We conducted a telephone survey in Macao, China, and acquired a community-dwelling Chinese adult sample (N = 697) with the two-stage cluster random sampling method. Regression analyses showed that individuals with slower LH strategies displayed higher levels of protective gambling beliefs and RG behaviors. As hypothesized, protective gambling beliefs demonstrated a positive association with RG behaviors; furthermore, we found its partial mediating effect on the relationship between LH strategies and RG behaviors. Our findings suggested that one could take LH strategies into account in understanding individual differences in adopting RG behaviors and designing tailored measures to promote RG adherence. The present study also highlighted the effect of protective gambling beliefs in exploring the underlying mechanism of the link between LH strategies and RG behaviors, pointing to a potential avenue in fostering protective gambling beliefs to further increase RG adherence.
