我们目前的结果从整个青少年学生人口年龄在12-19岁的科斯岛和他们的父母，他们的互联网赌博和各自的父母的做法，包括心理纽带和在线安全措施方面之间的关系的横断面研究。样本包括2 017名学生（51.8%为男生，48.2%为女生）。我们的研究结果表明，性别，父母的做法，认为由青少年和青少年的互联网活动的不同模式是最好的预测变量之间的互联网赌博。父母采取的安全措施未能对互联网赌博的程度产生影响，这表明需要采取具体措施来解决这一现象，因为在这方面提供关于互联网危险的简单教育是不够的。
We present results from a cross-sectional study of the entire adolescent student population aged 12-19 of the island of Kos and their parents, on the relationship between their Internet gambling and respective parental practices, including aspects of psychological bonding and online security measures. The sample consisted of 2,017 students (51.8% boys, 48.2% girls). Our results indicate that gender, parenting practices as perceived by the adolescents and distinct patterns of adolescent Internet activities are among the best predictor variables for Internet gambling. Security practices exercised by the parents failed to make an impact on the extent of Internet gambling, demonstrating the need for specific measures to tackle this phenomenon since the provision of simple education on the dangers of the Internet is not sufficient to this regard.
