Building on the NSW youth gambling study 2020, this is the first study to conduct a large qualitative exploration of gambling transitions amongst young people in New South Wales and the key influences on these transitions.

To enhance understanding and inform improved policy responses, researchers asked Australian adults about their participation in gambling, attitudes towards wagering advertising, how exposure to advertising influences their behaviour and their views on potential policy responses. This snapshot summaries the key findings of the recent survey.

This snapshot explores how often Australians gamble, how much they spent, their risk of gambling harm, and community attitudes towards gambling.

This snapshot shows where and how often Australians are exposed to wagering advertising in the last 12 months. Wagering operators use a diverse and increasingly sophisticated range of advertising platforms and strategies to promote their services, including in traditional media and via online/interactive modes.

This summary outlines findings from research into community attitudes towards sports and race betting advertising.
