Abstract

Gambling on college and professional sports and the influence of attending colleges with differing levels of "sports interest" were examined among athletes, sports fans, and other students (N = 10,559) at 119 colleges in the United States using multilevel statistical analysis. Athletes and fans reported more sports gambling compared to other students, with no differences between athletes and fans. Male students were more likely to gamble than female students, but gender did not moderate the relationship between athletic participation and sports gambling. Students attending schools with a greater "sports interest" were more likely to gamble on college sports after adjusting for individual characteristics. Athletes, sports fans, and students attending schools with high "sports interest" are appropriate targets for prevention efforts.

摘要

在美国119所大学的运动员、体育迷和其他学生（N = 10559）中，运用多层次统计分析研究了参与大学和职业体育赌博的情况，以及就读于不同“体育兴趣”水平院校的影响。与其他学生相比，运动员和体育迷参与体育赌博的情况更多，而运动员和体育迷之间没有差异。男学生比女学生更有可能参与赌博，但性别并未调节体育参与和体育赌博之间的关系。在对个体特征进行调整后，就读于“体育兴趣”更高院校的学生更有可能对大学体育赛事进行赌博。运动员、体育迷以及就读于“体育兴趣”高的院校的学生是预防工作的合适目标群体。
