Gambling Research Australia (GRA)

The distribution of Australian sports data into foreign jurisdictions

Sport Integrity Australia; Gambling Reserach Australia
Sport Integrity Australia, Gambling Research Australia (GRA)

This study aimed to better understand Australian sports data creation and dissemination, and its flow into offshore wagering markets on sport integrity and consumer protection outcomes in Australia.

The research found that Australian sports data is necessary for the development of offshore wagering markets, that the sale of unofficial sports data to offshore wagering service providers (WSPs) creates a risk to sport integrity, and that the products offered do not provide consumer protections in line with regulatory standards in Australia. Sports bettors who used offshore WSPs were more likely to engage in problematic betting behaviour compared to sports bettors who did not use offshore WSPs. 

Self-exclusion and breaching of self-exclusion from gambling: a repeated survey study on the development of a nationwide self-exclusion service

Hakansson, A.; Komzia, N.
Harm Reduction Journal

Voluntary self-exclusion from gambling is a common harm reduction tool in individuals with a gambling disorder. Previous data have demonstrated that many gamblers breach their own self-exclusion, typically through other online services outside the jurisdiction in which they are self-excluded. The present study aimed to carry out a new follow-up measure - similar to previous studies in the same setting - of self-exclusion and its breaching in Sweden, in order to allow for the follow-up assessment of a nationwide, multi-operator self-exclusion system introduced in Sweden in 2019.

Philander, K.; Gainsbury, S.
Journal of Gambling Studies

Findings support the Pathways Model of Problem and Pathological Gambling.

NSW Youth Gambling Study 2022: Qualitative Research

Hing, N.; Thorne, H.; Lole, L.; et al.

This study explored four interrelated topics on gambling, gaming and simulated gambling amongst young people aged 12-17 years in NSW: 

  • youth gambling transitions
  • parental and other influences 
  • new and emerging online gambling advertising, and
  • resilience and protective factors. 

This research builds on the NSW Youth Gambling Study 2020 to develop a deeper understanding of youth gambling, which will inform public health interventions to reduce gambling-related harm.
