Community gambling survey...

The Oregon Problem Gambling Prevention Committee developed a community survey (right; click to enlarge) about a year ago to address gambling attitudes and behaviors among Oregonians.

The survey also functioned to gain insight to what efforts the general public believes would be important to address for Oregon Problem Gambling Services. A similar survey was developed and conducted among youth, and was highly valuable in understanding the gambling habits & attitudes of almost 2,500 Oregon youth [click here for more info on the youth survey].

To date, only a handful of community surveys have been distributed and returned. In a renewal of efforts, I'd like to see if there is any interest, and what questions we should ask the public.


Questions for any and all:
- What do you believe to be the most important questions in this survey of the general public?
- Do you have any other suggestions for questions in the survey?
- If it were you taking the survey, what length of a survey would you complete? (e.g., 5 questions/one page, etc.)
