Sports betting is becoming increasingly widespread, and a growing number of individuals, both adolescents and adults, participate in this type of gambling. The main aim of this systematic review was to assess correlates of sports betting (sociodemographic features, gambling-related variables, co-occurring psychopathologies, and personality tendencies) through a systematic review conducted following the PRISMA guidelines. Relevant studies were identified via searches of NCBI/PubMed and APA PsycInfo databases. Individuals from the general population and/or with a clinical diagnosis of gambling disorder (GD) were included, irrespective of gender and age. In addition, the studies needed to have administered at least one clinical interview/psychometric instrument to assess the presence of problematic gambling/GD, contain at least one group of participants with sports betting, and directly analyze the association between sports betting and any of the following features: sociodemographics, gambling-related variables, co-occurring psychopathologies, and/or personality tendencies. Fifty-four articles were included. Multiple sociodemographic variables have been studied in relation to sports betting. In general, males with high impulsivity have greater tendencies for sports betting. The co-occurrence of certain pathologies, especially substance use or other addictive disorders, was also suggested. Most studies were cross-sectional, assessed participants using self-administered instruments, recruited samples using non-probability online panels, included small samples, had unbalanced samples, and included samples from only one country. Impulsive males may be particularly prone to sports gambling and related problems. Future research should examine prevention strategies that may help prevent the development of sport-betting-related GD and other addictive behaviors in vulnerable individuals.
体育博彩越来越普及，越来越多的青少年和成年人参与到这种赌博方式中。本系统综述的主要目的是通过遵循 PRISMA 指南进行系统综述，评估体育博彩的相关因素（社会人口统计学特征、赌博相关变量、共病精神病理学和人格倾向）。通过在 NCBI/PubMed 和 APA PsycInfo 数据库中进行检索，确定了相关研究。研究对象包括一般人群中的个体和/或有赌博障碍（GD）临床诊断的个体，无论性别和年龄如何。此外，这些研究需要至少使用一种临床访谈/心理计量工具来评估存在问题的赌博/GD，并包含至少一组参与体育博彩的参与者，以及直接分析体育博彩与以下任何特征之间的关联：社会人口统计学、赌博相关变量、共病精神病理学和/或人格倾向。共纳入了 54 篇文章。多项社会人口统计学变量已被研究与体育博彩有关。一般来说，具有高冲动性的男性更倾向于进行体育博彩。还提示存在某些共病的情况，特别是物质使用或其他成瘾障碍。大多数研究是横断面研究，使用自我报告的工具评估参与者，使用非概率在线小组招募样本，样本量较小，样本不平衡，且仅来自一个国家。冲动的男性可能特别容易出现体育博彩和相关问题。未来的研究应探讨预防策略，以帮助预防易受影响的个体中与体育博彩相关的 GD 和其他成瘾行为的发展。
