According to the source, findings were derived from analysis of the 2015 Household, Income and Labor Dynamics in Australia (HILDA) Survey. The HILDA Survey is designed so that findings can be generalized to the Australian adult population.
HILDA Survey participants reported gambling-related problems on the Problem Gambling Severity Index (PGSI). Non-problem gamblers report no problematic gambling behavior or harm. Low-risk and moderate-risk gamblers report low or moderate level problematic behavior and/or consequences. They are considered as being at low to moderate risk of becoming problem gamblers. Problem gamblers report severe problematic behavior and/or consequences.
