Fairleigh Dickinson survey finds gambling-risk indicators among 10% of young men
A Fairleigh Dickinson University survey found that 10% of US men aged 18 to 30 scored at a level indicating a gambling problem, compared with about 3% of men overall. The survey covered 801 registered voters between 17 and 20 August, with a margin of error of 3.5 percentage points. Separately, the National Council on Problem Gambling said state customer protections varied widely in its review of gambling laws.
The findings give operators and policymakers evidence on reported gambling-risk indicators among younger men and uneven state protections.
