Gambling Among Latinos: A Secondary Analysis of the California Prevalence Survey OPG Problem Gambling Summit March 6, 2012 Michael Campos, PhD UCLA Gambling Studies Program

Gambling Problems Pathological gambling impacts about 1-2% of the general population in North America. Gambling problems are associated with physical and mental health, legal, financial, relationship, and employment problems. Some data suggest that Latinos may be at increased risk for gambling problems relative to Non-Latino Whites (e.g., Welte et al., 2001; L = 7.9%, NLW = 1.8%), and some suggest that the rates are similar for these two ethnic groups (Alegria et al., 2009; L = 1.0%, NLW = 1.2%).

Current Data Data for this study come from the CA Prevalence Survey (Volberg et al., 2006). Data were collected via telephone interviews using a structured interview. Data were weighted by the original study team to account for sampling design and to reflect the population characteristics of CA. Used the Public Use File, which includes modifications to some variables to protect the privacy of study participants.

Current Analysis Examined the utility of splitting the CA Latino population on acculturation level when studying gambling problems. Three groups are compared: (1) Non-Latino Whites; (2) High-Acculturated Latinos; and, (3) Low-Acculturated Latinos. Looked for differences between groups on a number of gambling-related variables.

Operationalizing US Acculturation We operationalized US acculturation in our sample using a modification of methods detailed in Cruz et al., Created a scale with scores ranging from 0 – 4, with higher scores indicating higher US acculturation. Scale Items: (1) Interview language; (2) Language used at home; (3) US Nativity; (4) Proportion of life lived in the US. Latino individuals were divided into High- and Low-US acculturation using a median split on this scale.

Demographics Findings from CA Prevalence survey mirror those for the 2010 census. Latinos may be characterized by the presence of some risk factors for pathological gambling. This may be particularly true for Low- Acculturated Latinos.

The Latino Immigrant Paradox Latino immigrants, particularly those of Mexican Origin, are healthier, less likely to report depression, and less likely to abuse or be dependent on substances than US-Born Latinos (Amaro, Whitaker, Coffman, & Heeren, 1990; Moscicki, Locke, Rae, & Boyd, 1989)(for a review see Vega & Sribney, 2011).
