Higher risk population Research has shown that teenagers and college-aged young
adults are more impulsive and at higher risk for developing gambling disorders than adults.
Most adults with a gambling problem started gambling at an early age. Scientists have learned that the adolescent brain is still growing, which accounts for the frequently impulsive behavior and unwise decisions of teenagers.
Compared to students without gambling problems, students with gambling problems are more likely to use tobacco, drink heavily or binge drink, smoke marijuana or use other illegal drugs, drive under the influence and have a low GPA.

We will followthrough with activities, programming andour media campaign and assess whereour student exposure and knowledge is.
Educating Students+ Our first objective was to providegambling and referral information tostudents living and taking classes onthe University of Bridgeport Campus.In order to reach the maximum aboutof students possible we createdPowerPoint presentations containinggambling statistics and referralinformation. These presentationswere played in the residence halls,dining halls, online portal, and in theStudent Center for several weeksduring both Fall and Spring Semester.
+All students that participated in newstudent orientation and orientationleaders were given GamblingAwareness information and referralinformation during the Fall and SpringOrientation period.
+This allowed us to maximize theamount of students we were able toreach in a passive manner. A largeamount of students were able to viewthe statistical data and referralinformation throughout each semesterin a number of different venues oncampus.
Student Attitudes about Gambling:- For some gambling could be anaddiction.-It can start with friends and turn intosomething much more.-It is not necessarily a problem on theUniversity of Bridgeport campus.Student Perceptions of Positive Aspectsof Gambling:WinningStudent Perceptions of Negative Aspectsof Gambling:Emotional: Anger over loses, Losing
Money, No Hope, Relying on it forincome, Risk of Injury

Students
Students believed gambling can Include:Cards, placing a bet on a game, casinos, and
some felt that lottery scratch games wereincluded. Students did not feel March Madnesspools were considered “risky” gambling but didacknowledge it as gambling.
Student’s understanding of the GamblingPopulation:
On campus students, off campus students, andmore often international students.-Not as much of an issue for those studentswho are in debt. More of a problem for offcampus students.-Students agreed that there is an increasedaccessibility due to internet.-Targets students who are privileged.
Students suggestions during Poster/MediaCampaign Creation:
-Clear Taglines that could work with multipledifferent substances/risky behaviors
-”Pop” art, colors that stand out-Posters should be viewed in a group for highest
impact-Have more than one series of posters to display
for maximum effectiveness
Focus Group Findings that Controlled Creation of Campaign:
