This qualitative study of the community impact of a Midwest American Indian casino examined semi-structured interview data
(N = 20) from American Indian women. Results indicate that the opening of the tribal casino has provided opportunities for intergroup
contact to occur resulting in improved relations between Indians on the reservation and those who are not Indian from surrounding
communities. These improved relations are positively affecting the relationships that develop between the members of the communities.
The findings highlight the need for social workers to examine the impact of intergroup contact that is naturally occurring
in tribal casino communities and develop interventions that can assist in reducing stereotypes and prejudices. 相似文献

Objectives To examine the prevalence of gambling and types of gambling activities in a sample of undocumented Mexican immigrants. Design Non-probability cross-sectional design. Setting New York City. Sample The 431 respondents ranged in age from 18 to 80 (mean age 32), 69.7% were male. Results More than half (53.8%) reported gambling in their lifetime and of those most (43.9%) played scratch and win tickets or the
lottery. In multivariate analyses men reported gambling more than women [2.13, 95% CI = (1.03, 4.38)]. The odds of gambling
in their lifetime were higher among those reporting sending money to family or friends in the home country [2.65, 95% CI = 1.10,
6.38)], and those who reported 1–5 days as compared to no days of poor mental health in the past 30 days [2.44, 95% CI = 1.22,
4.89)]. Conversely, those who reported entering the U.S. to live after 1996 were less likely to report gambling [0.44, 95%
CI = (0.22, 0.89)] as compared to those who had lived in the U.S. longer. Conclusion There is a need to further explore both the prevalence and the severity of gambling amongst the growing population of undocumented
Mexican immigrants in the U.S. 相似文献
