在2022年世界杯赛期间,电视赌博广告在英格兰青年男子中提高了赌注率,引起人们对现行条例的担忧。 TV gambling ads during the 2022 World Cup boosted betting among young men in England, raising concerns about current regulations.

谢菲尔德大学的一项研究发现,在英格兰的2022年国际足联世界杯期间,电视赌博广告增加了18至45岁男子的赌博活动,赌注频率上升16%至24%,在广告支持的频道上赌博的可能性高达22%至33%。 A University of Sheffield study found that television gambling ads during the 2022 FIFA World Cup in England increased betting activity among men aged 18 to 45, with betting frequency rising 16% to 24% and the likelihood of placing a bet up 22% to 33% on ad-supported channels. 研究人员警告说,现行条例可能不够充分,因为广告引发了新的赌博行为,提高了总体参与率,增加了危害风险。 Researchers warned current regulations may be insufficient, as ads triggered new gambling behavior and raised overall participation, increasing harm risks. 赌博和赌博委员会反驳说,领有执照的书商广告已经下降到联合王国广告的2.7%,其中20%的广告专用于更安全的赌博。 赌博和赌博委员会还强调了自愿的“口哨对口”禁令,这项禁令将儿童接触风险降低97%,强调非法网站由于不受管制的广告和没有年龄检查而构成更大的风险。 The Betting and Gaming Council countered that licensed bookmaker ads have declined to 2.7% of UK ads, with 20% dedicated to safer gambling, and highlighted a voluntary "whistle-to-whistle" ban that reduced children’s exposure by 97%, stressing that illegal sites pose greater risks due to unregulated advertising and no age checks.
