Abstract

ABSTRACT The burden of gambling problems is felt more strongly among people who experience poverty. A small but emerging body of research is developing with no identified reviews exploring the scope of the academic literature on the confluence of poverty and gambling problems. The Arksey and O’Malley scoping study framework was used to map research on this multifaceted topic. We synthesized findings of 27 studies, spanning several national contexts on prevalence of problem gambling and associations of it with poverty. Findings indicated that gambling problems were associated with several poverty measures including employment/unemployment, housing instability, homelessness, low income, and neighborhood disadvantage. The complex interplay of gambling problems with social and health issues emerged in qualitative papers. Relatively few studies explored the connection between poverty and gambling problems despite higher prevalence of gambling problems in this population. Those experiencing both concerns face myriad challenges necessitating surveillance and treatment within vulnerable populations. Further research should explore pathways to gambling problems and poverty and also the associative nature and temporal sequencing of the two phenomena. Global awareness on the topic from a research and clinical/community service perspective is necessary.

贫困背景下的问题赌博:范围界定综述
摘要赌博问题的负担在经历贫困的人中感受更为强烈。一个小型但新兴的研究机构正在发展中,没有明确的评论来探索关于贫困和赌博问题的学术文献的范围。Arksey和O'Malley的范围界定研究框架用于绘制关于这一多方面主题的研究图。我们综合了27项研究的结果,这些研究涉及多个国家,涉及问题赌博的普遍性及其与贫困的关系。调查结果表明,赌博问题与一些贫困指标有关,包括就业/失业、住房不稳定、无家可归、低收入和社区劣势。赌博问题与社会和健康问题的复杂相互作用出现在定性论文中。尽管赌博问题在这一人群中更为普遍,但探索贫困与赌博问题之间联系的研究相对较少。那些同时经历这两种担忧的人面临着无数挑战,需要在弱势人群中进行监测和治疗。进一步的研究应该探索赌博问题和贫困的途径,以及这两种现象的关联性和时间顺序。从研究和临床/社区服务的角度对这一主题的全球认识是必要的。
