This research study is looking at the connection between atypical work schedules (like shift work or night shifts), idle time during work, and at-risk gambling practices in adults. Researchers want to understand whether certain work patterns and downtime might increase someone's risk of developing problematic gambling habits. The study will help identify factors that could support workers in these situations.
About 5% of adults in France show signs of at-risk gambling, which can harm their wellbeing and social life. Very little research has looked at whether unusual work schedules and idle time at work might contribute to this problem, even though these working conditions can affect mental health and decision-making. This study aims to fill that gap.

You will be asked to share information about your work schedule, downtime experiences, and gambling habits, likely through surveys or questionnaires completed on your phone or email. The study involves 25 people total, and researchers will use your responses to understand patterns between work conditions and gambling risk. This is an observational study, meaning researchers are gathering information rather than testing a new treatment.
