Abstract copyright UK Data Service and data collection copyright owner.The aim of the Young People and Gambling Survey is to explore young people’s attitudes towards gambling and their participation in different types of gambling activities, designed to provide a means of tracking these perceptions and behaviours over time. The survey looks at those forms of gambling and gambling style games that children and young people legally take part in along with gambling on age restricted products.
The 2018 research was conducted using Ipsos MORI’s Young People Omnibus, a representative online survey of pupils attending academies and maintained schools in England, Scotland and Wales (excluding fee-paying and other establishments covering 11-16 year olds). In total 2,865 11-16 year olds participated in the research between 5th February and 2nd July 2018. The survey was administered in two ways; self completion paper questionnaire or an online survey. Data have been weighted to the known profile of the population, in order to provide a representative sample.
