ANROWS Research Report, Issue 21, September 2020
This study aimed to investigate the nature of the relationship
between gambling and IPV against women by a male partner.
Four research questions guided the study:
1. How does gambling by a male partner interact with his
violence against his female partner?
2. How does gambling by a female partner interact with
violence from her male partner?
3. How does gambling by a male partner interact with his
economic abuse of his female partner?
4. Do older women have distinctive experiences of violence
from a male partner linked to gambling?
The study focused on IPV by men against a female partner
because this is the most common form of DFV linked
to gambling (Dowling et al., 2014; Dowling et al., 2019).
Gambling-related IPV in this study refers to situations where
the IPV is linked to the perpetrator’s gambling (where the
male perpetrator of IPV has a gambling problem) or where
the IPV is linked to the victim’s/survivor’s gambling (where
the female victim/survivor of IPV has a gambling problem). (From the Executive summary). Record #8934
