Le projet ENHJEU : Analyse contextuelle des jeux de hasard et d'argent chez les étudiants universitaires
Kairouz, Sylvia; Nadeau, Louise — 2018-01-18 Young adults in universities are at higher risk for excessive gambling and several associated risk behaviors such as excessive drinking and substance use. The objectives of this project are three-fold: 1) to describe the gambling habits among undergraduate university students exploring patterns of gambling on a wide variety of activities and considering the physical location and the type of gambling partners; 2) to examine the differences between non-social gamblers, at-risk gamblers and problem gamblers; and 3) to assess the relationships between severity of gambling problems and other associated problems such as hazardous drinking, illicit drug use and psychological distress. The findings are expected to provide a reliable portray of gambling habits among undergraduate students to purposively identify needs for prevention and services among this vulnerable population.

ENHJEU-Québec Survey Portrait of gambling in Quebec: Prevalence, incidence and trajectories over four years
Kairouz, Sylvia; Nadeau, Louise — 2018-01-18 This project is part of the collaborative funding program « Les jeux de hasard et d’argent au Québec : Portrait des joueurs adultes et prévalence des problèmes associés » of the Fonds québécois de la recherche sur la société et la culture (FQRSC). This project is conducted over a period of five years. It aims at generating data on the prevalence of gambling behaviours and associated problems among the adult population of Quebec. The project is carried out in two stages – one in 2009, the subject of this report, and another in 2012, a follow-up survey. The current report describes the problems associated with gambling by type of game, and devotes special attention to the prevalence of at-risk and probable pathological gamblers, namely, the most vulnerable groups of the population. The presentation of populational tables in the results allows for recommendations to be made for the prevention of gambling problems and the treatment of players struggling with problems. This report describes the first stage of the project.
