Research revealed that about 50% of young Australians frequently engage in both alcohol and gambling. This alarming trend is prevalent particularly in social settings.
The study indicated that early exposure to gambling and alcohol significantly amplifies the risks of harm later in adulthood, shedding light on critical preventive measures.
Male participants showed a strong preference for sports betting, while females tended to favor lotteries; however, electronic gambling machines were equally popular among both genders.
Participants communicated that stigma surrounding gambling-related issues often prevents them from seeking help, yet peer support networks have proven effective in enhancing recovery outcomes.
