Gambling is a widespread activity with an estimated total annual turnover of $10 trillion (illegal gambling may be considerably higher).<\/p>\n<p>The nature and frequency of gambling behaviour is affected by personal, social, and environmental factors. These include:<\/p>\n<p>A person\u2019s environment and community can influence their exposure to gambling, the types of gambling available and their behaviours and attitudes. It can also impact their ability to control their gambling behaviours and protect themselves from harm.
