Gambling Harm experiences by children of gamblers
About
This presentation by Dr Aino Suomi, Director at the Australian National University’s Centre for Gambling Research will focus on the impacts of parental gambling on children. Surveys and interviews were conducted for this study where, adult respondents recollected their childhood experiences of parental gambling, to better understand the harm experienced by children that can be attributed to their parents’ gambling through.Based upon the study, the presentation will highlight key findings from the study, that included determining the areas of child wellbeing that are affected by parental problem gambling, the extent to which parental gambling severity predicts the degree of gambling harm experienced by children, and the ways in which exposure to gambling harm in childhood relates to health and wellbeing outcomes later in life.
