“…Because social workers commonly work with persons who experience multiple problems including a history of ACE, addictions, multiple psychiatric comorbidities, and family problems, they work extensively with individuals at high risk for gambling problems (Momper, 2010;Rogers, 2013). Therefore, practitioners would benefit from a more complete understanding of PGD assessment and intervention.…”

“…Social work professionals, educators and authorities would benefit from recognising the socially contextualised nature of gambling behaviour and gambling problems, and that social networks may work as important sources and change agents in terms of preventing potentially critical behaviours from developing into serious gambling problems. In this context, it might be considered to develop the training of social workers to enable them to better recognise signs of this ‘hidden addiction’ and thus to refer individuals and families to appropriate help and service (Rogers, ).…”

In many countries, gambling has gained status as a socially accepted form of entertainment. Studies of how and to what extent young people are influenced by changes in gambling availability are relatively inconclusive, and knowledge of why youth gambling behaviours increase or decrease under changing conditions is sparse. This study addressed this situation by examining qualitatively how young people experience and respond to changes in gambling opportunities. The research presented in the article is part of a large longitudinal study of gambling behaviours among Danish adolescents. Data were collected over a period of 3 years with three waves of interviews with a 10‐ to12‐month frequency. A number of issues were identified and these were integrated into four overarching analytical themes: legislation, conditions of entry, proximity and technological innovations. Implications for further research and policy are considered.

Rahapelaamisen mahdollisuuksien kasvaessa sosiaalialalla toimivat työntekijät tulevat todennäköisesti kohtaamaan rahapeliongelmista kärsiviä asiakkaita. Työntekijöiden asiantuntijuutta tarvitaan asiakkaan ongelman tunnistamisessa, hänen auttamisessaan ja ohjaamisessaan oikeanlaisten palvelujen äärelle. Tätä laadullista tutkimusta varten haastateltiin 24 sosiaalialan ammattilaista, jotka työskentelevät eri toimipaikoissa eri puolilla Suomea. Suurimmalla osalla oli yliopistotutkinto sosiaalityöstä. Menetelmänä käytettiin aineistolähtöistä sisällönanalyysia. Asiantuntijuus alkaa useimmiten yhteiskunnallisen ilmiön (eli ongelmapelaamisen) hahmottamisesta asiakkaiden kertomusten ja omien kokemusten perusteella. Asiantuntijuutta tarvitaan myös asiakkaan kohtaamisessa ja rahapelaamisen puheeksiotossa. Moni haastateltava piti rahapelaamisesta kysymistä tärkeänä, vaikka kaikki eivät aina muistaneet tehdä sitä. Asiantuntijuus ei ollut pelkästään yhden työntekijän varassa, vaan yhteistyötä tekemällä hyödynnettiin kollegoiden monipuolista asiantuntijuutta ja muiden ammattilaisten osaamista.
