Gambling Survey for Great Britain: Year 1, 2023

<p>The <span>Gambling Survey for Great Britain</span> (GSGB) is a push-to-web survey (with a paper questionnaire option) that collects data on gambling participation. The GSGB is commissioned by the Gambling Commission and carried out by the National Centre for Social Research and the University of Glasgow. Data collection for the first year of the survey was conducted in 2023.</p>
<p>The aims of the GSGB are to:</p>
<ul>
<li>collect data on a wide range of up-to-date gambling behaviours, including participation and adverse consequences of gambling;</li><li>provide a rolling programme of data collection to give the Commission the ability to gain timely insights and respond to emerging trends;</li><li>contribute to the evidence base on gambling behaviours and impacts, and help identify gaps and priorities, and;</li><li>produce and publish official statistics on gambling participation and prevalence statistics in accordance with the standards set out by the Office for Statistics Regulation in the Code of Practice for Statistics.</li></ul>
<p>Users should note that findings from the GSGB are not directly comparable with prior surveys used for gambling statistics, such as the Health Surveys for England and Scotland and the British Gambling Prevalence (BGPS) series that ran from 2007-2010 (held at the UKDS under SNs 5836, 6639 and 6843). This is because the new push-to-web methodology uses a different approach compared to the methodologies used in prior surveys, and GSGB development provides an opportunity to refresh and update questions.</p>

英国博彩调查（Gambling Survey for Great Britain，GSGB）是一种推送式网络调查（push-to-web survey，附带纸本问卷选项），用于收集博彩参与相关数据。该调查由英国博彩委员会（Gambling Commission）委托，国家社会研究中心（National Centre for Social Research）与格拉斯哥大学（University of Glasgow）共同执行。该调查首年度的数据采集工作于2023年完成。

GSGB的调研目标如下：
- 收集涵盖博彩参与及博彩不良后果等多类最新博彩行为数据；
- 搭建滚动式数据采集项目，使委员会能够及时获取洞察并应对新兴博彩趋势；
- 为博彩行为与影响相关的证据基础提供支撑，助力识别研究空白与优先级方向；
- 依据英国统计监管办公室（Office for Statistics Regulation）发布的《统计实务准则》（Code of Practice for Statistics）所设定的标准，编制并发布博彩参与率与流行率相关的官方统计数据。

用户需注意，GSGB的调研结果无法与此前用于博彩统计的调查直接对标，例如英格兰与苏格兰健康调查（Health Surveys for England and Scotland），以及2007至2010年间开展的英国博彩流行率调查（British Gambling Prevalence Survey，BGPS）系列（该系列数据由英国数据服务库（UK Data Service，UKDS）收录，研究编号为SN 5836、6639与6843）。这是因为新型推送式网络调研方法与既往调查所采用的方法存在差异，且GSGB的开发过程也为问卷的更新与优化提供了契机。
