Description: <P>Abstract copyright UK Data Service and data collection copyright owner.</P>
The main aims of this research were to determine the levels of underage sales of National Lottery products, and the prevalence of 'problem gambling' (as determined by the DSM-IV-MR-J - see full reference under 'Main Topics' section below) by under-16-year-olds on National Lottery scratchcards. These findings were also compared with a similar study conducted in 1997*. The research also attempted to explore whether those under 16 understood the reasons for the age restriction on the National Lottery.<br> *The findings from the 1997 survey were reported in: Fisher, S.E. (1998) &lt;i&gt;Gambling and problem gambling among adolescents in England and Wales&lt;/i&gt;, prepared for the Office of the National Lottery, OFLOT (now The National Lottery Commission).
