Responsible product design to mitigate excessive gambling: A scoping review and z-curve analysis of replicability.

ABSTRACT:

Objectives

Systematic mapping of evaluations of tools and interventions that are intended to mitigate risks for gambling harm.

Design

Scoping Review and z-curve analysis (which estimates the average replicability of a body of literature).

Search strategy

We searched 7 databases. We also examined reference lists of included studies, as well as papers that cited included studies. Included studies described a quantitative empirical assessment of a game-based (i.e., intrinsic to a specific gambling product) structural feature, user-directed tool, or regulatory initiative to promote responsible gambling. At least two research assistants independently performed screening and extracted study characteristics (e.g., study design and sample size). One author extracted statistic
