The identification of risk, cultural and protective factors associated with youth gambling problems ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS We would like to thank all the students who participated in this project, their teachers and the administrative staff in all the schools who graciously volunteered their time and permitted the completion of this study. [...] After controlling for the relative effect of age, gender, and the significant predictor variables, the inclusion of cultural identity improved the prediction of problem gamblers. [...] The systematic examination of risk and protective factors in the field of youth gambling is only beginning. [...] The second part of the IPFI, the EMT Risk Measures Addendum, includes a series of questions concerning risk factors in the respondent’s environment. [...] The High Risk/High Protective group was renamed the Resilient group as these individuals were reporting the same high levels of risk as the Vulnerable group but were also reporting the highest levels of internalized protective factors.
