Glücksspielbezogene Probleme unter Jugendlichen

Eine kritische Auseinandersetzung mit den gängigen Screening-Instrumenten

Published Online:May 29, 2014https://doi.org/10.1026/0942-5403/a000143

Abstract

Kommerzielle Glücksspielangebote und selbstorganisierte Spiele um Geld repräsentieren integrale Bestandteile der Lebenswirklichkeit vieler Heranwachsender. In diesem Zusammenhang machen internationale wie nationale Befunde in konsistenter Weise darauf aufmerksam, dass in der Entwicklungsphase des Jugendalters ein erhöhtes Risiko besteht, glücksspielbezogene Probleme zu entwickeln. Allerdings mangelt es an testtheoretisch abgesicherten, jugendgerechten Verfahren zur Bestimmung eines problematischen Spielverhaltens. Daher muss letztendlich offen bleiben, ob diese Form jugendlichen Problemverhaltens überhaupt angemessen und zielgerichtet erfasst wird, oder ob es sich hierbei (zumindest partiell) um einen Messartefakt handelt. Ein Ziel zukünftiger Forschungen ist es folglich, ein Screening-Instrument zu entwickeln und zu validieren.


Gambling-related problems among youths: A critical review of current screening instruments

Commercial gambling products and self-organized forms of gambling are integral components of the life experiences of many adolescents. International as well as national evidence shows that there is an increased risk of developing gambling-related problems during adolescence. However, because of the lack of rigorous psychometric research with regard to adolescent problem gambling assessment tools it remains unclear whether this form of adolescent problem behavior is measured in an appropriate and targeted way or may actually represent (at least partly) a measurement artifact. Therefore, an important goal of future research should be to develop and validate a screening instrument.
