In sum, this paper examines the core determinants of lottery sales in Portugal. With panel data analysis covering 18 Portuguese districts and 5 years, this study explains the variations in a district's per-capita lottery sales in terms of key theoretical hypotheses such as per capita district income, age, education index, gender and religion. This paper concludes that the richer Portuguese districts spend more than the poorer districts and there is an inverted-U relationship between lottery sales and per capita income. The paper also concludes that married Catholic citizens spend more on lottery products than others and that the level of education returns a negative effect on lottery spending.
总之，本文研究了葡萄牙彩票销售的核心决定因素。本研究使用涵盖 18 个葡萄牙地区和 5 年的数据的面板数据分析，根据人均地区收入、年龄、教育指数、性别和宗教等关键理论假设，解释了地区人均彩票销售的变化。本文得出的结论是，较富裕的葡萄牙地区的支出高于较贫困的地区，彩票销售与人均收入之间存在着倒 U 型关系。本文还得出结论，已婚天主教公民比其他人在彩票产品上的支出更多，而教育水平对彩票支出产生负面影响。
