The phenomenon of Online Gambling has experienced a strong expansion in recent decades due to the intrinsic characteristics that make it especially attractive to gamblers (accessibility, anonymity). This article provides a synthesis of the literature on risk and protective factors associated with this type of gambling. It is restricted to peer-reviewed articles published between 2010 and 2020 and includes research concerning both online nonproblematic, problematic, and pathological gambling.<\/p>\n

A common finding is that people who gamble online tend to have a higher rate of co-occurring physical and mental health conditions compared to those who don\u2019t gamble. These comorbidities, in turn, can negatively affect work and personal relationships. Another common finding is that online gamblers are more likely to engage in impulsive gambling, which can lead to chasing losses and increasing gambling intensity. It is also important to note that the online gambling environment can be very addictive and can cause people to lose money that they may need for bills and other financial obligations.<\/p>\n

In addition, online gamblers can often access games and tournaments that are not available in their area. This global reach can be very appealing to some people and expose them to different gambling styles and rules.<\/p>\n

The last feature of online gambling that is worth highlighting is the convenience factor. It is easier to play than visiting a casino in person and there are no time restrictions. This can be very appealing to some people, particularly in this time of Coronavirus and when people are looking for ways to relax and unwind.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
