Sisällön kuvaus

Statistics Finland conducted the Gambling Harm Survey in early 2017 as a mixed-mode internet/mail survey. The study was commissioned by the National Institute for Health and Welfare (THL). The study aimed to chart Finnish gambling habits, social and healthcare-related problems caused by gambling, and opinions on the visibility of advertising and marketing by Finnish gambling organisations.

In 2016, three gambling operators had exclusive rights to provide gambling services in Finland: Finland's Slot Machine Association RAY (government-owned), Veikkaus (government-owned) and Fintoto. These three were merged into a single government-owned organisation in 2017. First, the respondents were asked what the reasoning was for a government-owned and government-regulated gambling market (e.g. securing gambling profits for the state; supporting Finnish art, science, sports, and social services; reducing the harm caused by gambling; preventing foreign competition). Their opinions on marketing and advertising by these organisations were examined with questions regarding, for example, how often the respondents had seen gambling advertisements on billboards, television, the internet etc.

Gambling habits were examined with questions regarding the frequency of playing games of chance, such as lotteries or horse betting, and reasons for playing them. The study also surveyed if the respondents found gambling a problem, how often they had felt in 2016 that it was a problem, and if they were familiar with or had used different services provided by RAY, Veikkaus and Fintoto for helping control gambling. The amount of money the respondents had used for gambling in 2016 per week, per month and during the whole year was also surveyed, as well as in what sort of environments they played these games (e.g. at home, at work, in kiosks, at Casino Helsinki) and with whom (alone, with an acquaintance / a group of acquaintances, or with an unknown person / a group of unknown persons). It was also surveyed if the respondents gambled on the internet and whether they used a PC or a mobile device, such as a smartphone or a tablet computer, for online gambling.

Next, the Problem and Pathological Gambling Measure (PPGM) was used to evaluate the respondents' gambling habits. They were also asked about harm caused by gambling on their lives in general as well as relating to their economical situation, work or studies, health, emotional well-being and relationships. Other possible types of harm on the respondents' lives were also surveyed.

Finally, the respondents were asked if their social circle in 2016 included persons who, in their opinion, gambled too much. It was queried who these persons were in relation to the respondents and what sort of problems these persons' gambling had caused for the respondent.

Background variables included gender, education level, net income (categorised), economic activity and occupational status, age group and NUTS3 region.

Persons aged 18 and over residing in the area of chosen NUTS3 regions (Uusimaa, Kymenlaakso, Pirkanmaa) whose first language was Finnish, Swedish, Sami, Norwegian or Danish, and Finnish citizens whose first language was Russian, and Finnish citizens whose first language was some other language and who had obtained Finnish citizenship before the year 2013 (poislukien institutionalised population)

Probability: Stratified

The sample was drawn from Statistics Finland's population database.

The population comprised persons aged 18 and over residing in the area of three NUTS3 regions (Uusimaa, Kymenlaakso, Pirkanmaa). Included were persons whose first language was Finnish, Swedish, Sami, Norwegian or Danish, and Finnish citizens whose first language was Russian, and Finnish citizens whose first language was some other language and who had obtained Finnish citizenship before the year 2013.

The target population included all persons aged 18 and over residing in the chosen geographical regions, excluding institutionalised population. The sample size was 20,000 persons.

A previous study showed that the risk of problem gambling is especially high in the youngest demographic, which is why the stratum of persons aged 18 - 24 years was oversampled on purpose: the age group constitutes about 10% of the population, but 15% of the sample.

The following six strata were formed in the sample (supposing that the language criterium apply):

1. persons born before the year 1992 in the Uusimaa region (n = 11,750)

2. persons born in 1992 - 1998 in the Uusimaa region (n = 2,093)

3. persons born before the year 1992 in the Pirkanmaa region (n = 3,837)

4. persons born in 1992 - 1998 in the Pirkanmaa region (n = 709)

5. persons born before the year 1992 in the Kymenlaakso region (n = 1,413)

6. persons born in 1992 - 1998 in the Kymenlaakso region (n = 198)

The sample was picked using a systematic random sampling technique, for which the population was stratified according to region of residence. This technique produced a sample representative of the population in terms of region of residence. In addition, it was ascertained that the sample did not include two cases from the same household.

Aineiston käytössä huomioitavaa

The age variable was categorised by the data collector.

Painokertoimet

There are two weight variables in the data, bv4_1 and bv4_2. The weights are based on a CALMAR2 calibration adjustment. In the calibration, estimated distributions of chosen variables are forced to be representative of the population distribution. The weights were calibrated according to the Finnish population's (May 2015) age and gender distribution (age groups 18-24, 25-34, 35-44, 45-54, 55-64, 65-74, 75+), education level distribution (3 classes: basic education, upper secondary education, tertiary education) and region of residence distribution (NUTS3 region, 3 classes, and Finland's Environmental Administration's 2014 urban-rural classification, 7 classes). The sum of the weights in bv4_1 is equal to the size of the target population; bv4_2 does not have this effect (the mean of the weights is 1, i.e. the sum of the weights is equal to the number of cases). Both weight variables are based on the same calibration; they only differ in their scale.
