Positive messages could help manage online gambling, Australian report says
Researchers at Central Queensland University have completed a study funded by Gambling Research Australia (GRA) to gather evidence on changes in the attitudes and behaviours of gamblers as a result of exposure to safer gambling messages.
Over 2,000 regular sports and competition consumers received random messages over five weeks. During this period, the researchers measured how much users bet, how long they bet, and the overall gambling harm they experienced.
According to the participants, positive information on how to control gambling money was considered the most helpful and easy to understand. Study leader Professor Mathew Rockloff said participants spent less money and time gambling during the five-week participation.
