The researchers will develop and evaluate new tools for online Responsible Gambling (RG). The project is part of a larger, mutually initiated research collaboration between academia and the gambling industry. The scientists will develop and test high-quality, evidence-based RG tools in a live setting with active gamblers of two international gambling operators: Holland Casino Online (NL) and Playtech PLC (UK). The collaboration effort is based on the exchange of knowledge, expertise, and resources towards a comprehensive RG promotion framework, where a range of existing and newly designed RG tools will be dynamically tailored to gamblers' individual level of gambling risk and gambling behaviour patterns. "By collaborating with industry, we can use data we would otherwise not have access to." - Societal impact. Research lead Marilisa Boffo (assistant professor in clinical psychology and eHealth at the Erasmus School of Social and Behavioral Sciences) has a background in digital interventions for behaviour change, most eminently in the field of addiction.
