CONTINUED C3 GAMBLER’S HELP LINE 75 Responsible Gambling | Section C: The nature of gambling Consumer Affairs Victoria | consumer.vic.gov.au What forms of gambling are the most popular? a) Consider the information given on the pie chart on gambling expenditure above. Is this a better way of measuring popularity of gambling compared to simply participating, as the first set of statistics measures? Why? How else could popularity of gambling activities be measured? b) Further research claims that between 60-69 per cent of people between the ages of 12 to 20 participated in gambling activities. (Australian Gaming Council Discussion Paper, June 2007). Recent data on teenage gambling preferences is not available. A study done in 2000 found that ‘for year 8 boys, gambling preferences were races and sports (29 per cent), lottery tickets (23 per cent), poker machines or video games (19 per cent) and cards (17 per cent). For Year 8 girls, the preferred forms of gambling were lottery tickets (22 per cent), races and sports(20 per cent), poker machines or video games (7 per cent) and cards (6 per cent).’ Source: Problem Gambling: A guide for Victorian Schools, Victorian Government Department of Justice, 2006 This research is around ten years old. Would you expect any of these percentages to be different now? Why? 1800 858 858 www.problemgambling.vic.gov.au
