  1. The outcome variable was self-reported changes in gambling behaviour as a result of reading statements, with the two response options representing reductions in gambling used as the target value and the reference value set as the response indicating no self-reported change in gambling as a result of reading statements. Emboldened values were statistically significant at < 0.005
