作者:

Highlights:

• We review 20 papers on youth involvement in simulated gambling technology.

• Early exposure effects of simulated gambling are complex and multi-directional.

• A two-pathway model of risk and protective factors is proposed.

• The model identifies structural features that may contribute to risk of gambling problems.

• Research, clinical, and regulatory implications are outlined.
