Tabri N, Xuereb S, Cringle N, et al. - Researchers aimed at determining meta-analytic weighted effect sizes for zero-order associations of financial motives against gambling frequency and level of problem gambling, as well as partial associations after adjusting for other motives (eg, coping). Multiple sources (eg, database search, other researchers) were searched for relevant studies for inclusion. Findings suggest a positive correlation of financial gambling motives with gambling frequency, r = .29, [.21, .37], N = 22,738 and level of problem gambling, r = .35, [.31, .38], N = 38,204 with moderate effect sizes. After adjusting for overlapping variance, partial associations with other gambling motives were also positive (gambling frequency: β = .14, [.05, .22], N = 13,844; level of problem gambling: β = .18, [.13, .22], N = 28,146), with small-to-moderate effect sizes. Overall they indicated reliable as well as positive association of financial gambling motives with both gambling frequency and level of problem gambling.
