Unit 4: What Is Problem Gambling?Appendix AStudent Teacher Resource 1 p. 1Background InformationThe main learning objective of this lesson is that students learn to understandwhen behaviours cross the line into problematic activities.Objectives• to define what a “problem” is and the spectrum of behaviour involvement• to understand when a behaviour or an activity becomes “problematic”• to explore why it is often difficult for an individual to accept that some activities havebecome problematic.OverviewMost youth are well-adjusted individuals who need to experience life in a normative fashion,taking healthy risks that allow the development and growth of decision making, conflictresolution and social skills. Many youth engage in a number of behaviours that involve risk-takingactivities. Most do not go on to develop problems with these behaviours, but some do. Thequestion is, when is it a problem? For example, many youth occasionally use substances butmost do not develop a problem or abuse these substances. The CAMH Ontario Student DrugUse Survey (OSDUS) 1 and other studies have confirmed that around 60 per cent of youth areexperimenting with alcohol, 26 per cent are using marijuana and 5 per cent are using rave drugs.Most adolescents, despite all this, are well-adjusted individuals who get along with their parents,do their homework and have good friends. Research suggests that youth are using substancesbut not in a way that is adversely affecting their lives.Youth DevelopmentAdolescence marks a stage of incredible physical and cognitive growth. Social andemotional development also occurs at a surprising—and sometimes bewildering—rate.Research at UCLA’s Lab of Neuro Imaging suggests that during adolescence, boys and girlsundergo significant neuronal rewiring, which helps to explain changes in such functions asself-control, judgment, emotional regulation, organization and planning. 2 This research, intandem with studies performed at the National Institute of Mental Health and McLean Hospitalin Massachusetts, challenges traditional thinking that brain development is complete byage eight or ten. Risky behaviours that previously may have been attributed to hormonesor a lack of emotional maturity are now increasingly linked to a natural, even predictable,neurochemical process.Youth often feel and act as if they are invulnerable, which is normative for this developmentallevel. Usually, nothing traumatic has happened to them, they have been given support by theirfamily, they have been developing more physical and mental strength, and the world is full ofnew things to explore. Although they worry about what their friends think about them and aboutwho is going to say what about them at the cafeteria table, they don't believe they are physicallyin much danger in the world.Youth Making Choices: Gambling Prevention Programwww.ProblemGambling.ca4.15
