Abstract
This study evaluates the effectiveness of a video specifically designed to provide relevant information on gambling and to correct the perceptions that adolescents have about pathological gamblers. Results indicate that the video significantly improved participants' knowledge about gambling and corrected their misconceptions toward excessive gamblers. The implications of these results for the prevention of gambling problems are discussed.Entities:
