The Gambler in České Budějovice
BUSINSKÁ, Václava
My thesis deals with problems of pathology of gambling, both its causes as well as its consequences. Theoretic part describes pathology of gamgling and its impact on family life as well as on whole society. History of gambling machines and gambling club chains are also mentioned. Records of criminality are gained from POLICE of the Czech Republic. Amount of money for town České Budějovice earned in year 2008 by gambling machines is introduced in theoretic part. Further I describe therapy, prevention and key places in České Budějovice where gamblers or their families can apply for help. Practical part is divided into two sections, where first section contains three case reports demonstrating concrete life of people ruined by gambling. I also collaborated with psychiatry clinic Červený Dvůr, in fact the second section of practical part is evaluation of data gained there. At the conclusion there is a survey of gamblers and report of this specific social group. Gathered data show age, profession, belief and details of life. My focus is given to reasons why gamblers started playing, what exactly they were playing and why they decided to stop.
