Why do we Gamble

We gamble for excitement and enjoyment.  Some people gamble hoping they will win money so they can taste and touch the “big win” something that results in the financial means to make their dreams come true.  Some people gamble for entertainment, such as a night out with friends at the casino or a bingo game in support of a charitable organization.  Perhaps it’s purchasing an occasional lottery ticket. As well, there are people who gamble simply because they love the challenge, the environment and the thrill of the “game”.

According to the Centre for Addiction and Mental Health (CAMH), adults in Ontario who do not have a gambling problem gamble for the following reasons:

  • To win money
  • To socialize
  • For enjoyment
  • To pass the time

According to CAMH, people from different cultural backgrounds gamble for the following reasons:

  • To socialize
  • To escape problems and isolation
  • To socialize with members of cultural groups         
  • To regain social status
  • To celebrate religious festivals

Fatti relativi al gioco d’azzardo problematico

Fatti relativi al gioco d’azzardo problematico

  • Il 95% delle persone che hanno giocato qualche volta d’azzardo hanno un approccio sano al giocoIl 5% della popolazione ha un approccio problematico al gioco d’azzardo e
  • L’1% di quel 5% si trasforma in giocatori compulsivi/patologici

Molte persone giocano d’azzardo senza problemi. La stragrande maggioranza della gente lo fa senza recare danno a sé o agli altri. Secondo uno studio di CAMH (Centro per le dipendenze e la salute mentale) effettuato nel 1995, l’84% degli adulti dell’Ontario gioca d’azzardo almeno una volta l’anno e 1/3 della popolazione (il 33%) ha partecipato ad almeno tre forme di gioco d’azzardo nel 1994 (Ferrir 1996).

Ciò nonostante, c’è una parte della popolazione che sviluppa un “problema di gioco d’azzardo”, una situazione che ha molto in comune con altre forme di dipendenza. Fra questi giocatori d’azzardo, fino al 50% ha anche un problema di abuso di sostanze. Fra il 9% e il 18% di coloro che abusano di sostanze diventano anche giocatori patologici. L’abuso di sostanze è più elevato fra i giocatori giovani.

Jason Azmier, analista politico senior di Canada West Foundation, afferma che è molto difficile sapere chi sia affetto dal problema del gioco perché “si tratta di una patologia nascosta”.

Ecco alcuni dati, elaborati da un sondaggio svolto nel 2002 dalla sezione Salute mentale e benessere di Statistics Canada (Canadian Community Health Survey (CCHS), Ciclo 1.2):

Tre quarti dei canadesi (18,9 milioni) di età superiore ai 15 anni hanno speso denaro in qualche forma di gioco d’azzardo nel 2002.

Più di un canadese su 4 (il 27%) descrive se stesso “giocatore assiduo” e gioca d’azzardo almeno una volta la settimana.

La forma più diffusa di gioco d’azzardo è l’acquisto di biglietti della lotteria (lo fa il 65% della popolazione).

La spesa media nel gioco da parte dei canadesi di età superiore ai 18 anni è stata di 485 dollari a persona nel 2002, una cifra più che triplicata rispetto ai 190 dollari del 1992.

Circa il 62% dei giocatori d’azzardo problematici spende più di 1.000 dollari l’anno nel gioco.

I canadesi ritengono che il gioco sia un’attività accettabile e da sostenere in considerazione del fatto che è regolata dal governo. (www.statcan.gc.ca)
