BACKGROUND
Gambling risk behaviour is an emerging problem among adolescents. This study investigated the role of psychological factors, school behaviours, and normative perceptions as correlates of gambling among 12-14-year-old students in Italy.
METHODS
The study included 1822 students from 29 secondary schools in two Italian Regions (Piedmont and Lazio) who participated in the baseline survey of the experimental controlled trial "GAPUnplugged".
RESULTS
The prevalence of gambling in the last 30 days was 36.4%. The mean age was 13.1 years. Multilevel mixed-effect regression models identified high positive attitudes, high performance beliefs, low risk perceptions toward gambling, friends' gambling, friends' approval of gambling, and gambling with friends as independent correlates of adolescent gambling behaviour.
CONCLUSIONS
It appears essential to design and implement preventive strategies addressing these factors among early adolescents in order to reduce gambling behaviours and their consequences in later ages.
背景
赌博风险行为在青少年中是一个新出现的问题。本研究调查了心理因素、学校行为和规范认知作为意大利12至14岁学生赌博相关因素的作用。
方法
该研究纳入了来自意大利两个地区（皮埃蒙特和拉齐奥）29所中学的1822名学生，他们参与了实验对照试验“GAPUnplugged”的基线调查。
结果
过去30天内赌博的患病率为36.4%。平均年龄为13.1岁。多层次混合效应回归模型确定，对赌博的高度积极态度、高绩效信念、对赌博的低风险认知、朋友赌博、朋友对赌博的认可以及与朋友一起赌博是青少年赌博行为的独立相关因素。
结论
为了减少赌博行为及其在后期的后果，针对青少年早期设计并实施解决这些因素的预防策略似乎至关重要。
