Description
In the last decade, sports betting has shifted online. This shift poses a policy dilemma, because online gambling platforms offer a raft of new and under-regulated ‘in-play’ betting features. These in-play features give bettors the option of rapidly placing bets during live events, including ‘cashing out’ of their bets before events have ended. To regulate in-play betting features effectively, policymakers need to understand exactly how bettors use these features and how these features contribute to gambling-related harm. This project will use the tools of modern cognitive psychology to resolve this impasse.
