Frameworks and Measurement of Gambling Related Harm: A Scoping Study
This study, funded by GambleAware, is a short scoping study to understand developments in the conceptualisation and measurement of Gambling Related Harms. The goal was to appraise existing frameworks and measurement approaches, and thereby inform future research, prevention and intervention strategies.
The last decade has seen substantial developments in the conceptualisation and measurement of GRH, providing new perspectives that move beyond entrenched and clinically-derived definitions for gambling. A continued move towards public health paradigms will require continued support for the development of underlying tools and expertise.
Importantly, the study emphasises that new modes of gambling related harm measurement are needed. The field should move away from anachronistic measurement tools that conflate harms and behaviours, which are often used to produce often binary and stigmatising “problem gambler” labels onto individuals.
