The impact of COVID-19 on gambling and gambling disorder: emerging data

David C. Hodgins et al.

Summary: The COVID-19 pandemic has led to a reduction in gambling frequency and expenditure overall, but an increase in problematic gambling among certain groups. The most consistent correlates of increased gambling during the lockdown were increased problem gambling severity, younger age groups, and male gender. The long-term implications of these changes are still unclear and need to be further assessed in subsequent studies. In the short term, individuals with existing gambling problems should be recognized as a vulnerable group.

Understanding the Overlap Between Cannabis Use and Gambling Behaviour: A Systematic Review of Empirical Findings and Consideration of Policy Implications

Kiran Punia et al.

Summary: With recent changes in cannabis legalization in North America, there is a growing interest in understanding the relationship between cannabis and gambling. The majority of studies focus on the co-occurrence of cannabis and gambling in youth, with findings suggesting a link between the two behaviors. While there is a need for more research on simultaneous cannabis use during gambling, current findings highlight the importance of considering cannabis' effects on decision-making and risky behaviours.
