About the Course

The article titled ‘The Conceptual Framework of Harmful Gambling: A revised framework for understanding gambling harm’ introduces an updated framework that aims to comprehensively grasp the different aspects and effects of gambling harm. The goal is to offer a more in-depth and holistic view of the negative consequences associated with gambling, going beyond individual behavior, and considering wider societal factors. This revised framework covers four main domains: individual, interpersonal, community, and societal. Each domain explores various elements such as financial outcomes, emotional distress, breakdowns in relationships, and societal inequalities to provide a thorough understanding of the harm caused by gambling. The article stresses the significance of adopting this revised framework in research, policymaking, and interventions to effectively tackle the complex nature of gambling harm and its broader implications on society.

This course is based on the reading online article, The Conceptual Framework of Harmful Gambling: A Revised Framework for Understanding Gambling Harm created by Dr. Margo Hilbrecht et al in 2020.
