Zusammenfassung:The National Gambling Survey, 1999 was conducted as part of the Productivity Commission's inquiry into Australia's gambling industries, with the objectives of determining an estimate of problem gambler prevalence and an adequate set of data on problem gamblers. The survey was initiated upon endorsement by a roundtable discussion at the Productivity Commission in order to assemble a contemporary national unit record database. The survey comprised two phases, Phase 1 a brief questionnaire (or screener) and Phase 2 a more detailed questionnaire. Common variables for the three categories of repsondents include perceptions about aspects of gambling; knowldege of anyone with gambling problems; frequency of play; expenditure on gambling; losses experienced. Variables specific to non-regular gamblers (in addition to common) include further details about gambling participation and frequency; how much time is devoted to each gambling activity; how much money is spent on gambling activities; how the money spent of gambling would have otherwise been used. Variables specific to regular gamblers (in addition to common and non-regular) include the problem gambling screen; self designated assessment of the problem; other effects of gambling on the gambler and significant others; help seeking behaviour for problem gamblers. Background variables include age; gender; household size; own and parents country of birth; main language spoken in the home; marital status; household composition; employment status; main source of household income; personal and household income; educational attainment. Datafiles include 01021-ph1 and 01021-ph2.
