Abstract

Problem adolescent gamblers were more likely than other children to have other addictive behaviours, more likely to report that their parents approved, to be male, have begun gambling at an early age, have had a big win early on, and to be from a lower social class. Very few adolescent problem gamblers turn up for treatment.
