Oregon Prevalence [report]

The prevalence of disordered gambling among adults in Oregon: A replication study (2006) indicates that, by in large, the prevalence rate of disordered gambling in Oregon is being kept in check... "This is most likely due to ongoing aggressive "play responsible" media efforts by the Lottery and the largest prevention and treatment system in the nation."

"The timing of this current study was driven by the fact that the State Lottery was adding line games to the existing video lottery terminals (VLTs) distributed throughout the state that were previously only offering video poker games."
