Gambling in Juveniles
VÍŠKOVÁ, Michaela
I have chosen the topic of my bachelor paper ``Gambling in Juveniles{\crq}q because of its seriousness and topicality. The pathologic gambling has been more and more penetrating among juveniles to whom it causes, in the same way as in the adult population, more and more serious problems in the socio-economic sphere. This serious social pathologic phenomenon can be compared to drug addiction even though it does not damage human body in such fatal way. However, it affects the sphere of human psyche as well as the sphere of one{\crq}s social relations. And in the same way as drug addiction it has, in many cases, fatal impact on human life. My bachelor paper aims at finding out the extent and triggers of gambling in the population of high school juveniles in the area of Havlíčkův Brod. In the theoretic part of the paper specifics of gambling in children and juveniles are described as well as possible prevention of this phenomenon. Further diagnostic criteria of a pathologic gambler are described, the personality of a gambler is characterized, stages of development of pathologic gambling are defined and the corresponding legislature is dealt with. To fulfill the outlined goals, data were collected by means of the method of quantitative survey using anonymous questionnaires at six high school type schools (gymnasiums, professionally oriented high schools, craft oriented high schools). The questionnaires monitor students{\crq} experience with gambling machines and their reasons for gambling. The questionnaires further monitor students{\crq} awarness of the issue as well as prevention carried out at school they study at. On the basis of the survey I have checked three presumed hypotheses. Hypothesis 1: Students of craft oriented high schools yield more frequently to gambling than students of other high school types and gymnasiums. This hypothesis proved right. Hypothesis 2: Boys tend to yield to gambling more than girls. Also this hypothesis proved right. Hypothesis 3: Juveniles yield to gambling machines and to gambling more often under the influence of another person than from their own tending. This hypothesis proved wrong. The results of my bachelor paper can be used for the needs of further survey, for the needs of teaching and preventive measures at educational institutions and to increase the awareness concerning the gambling problematics in juveniles.
