Abstract

The rapid development of technology across various digital platforms has made it easier to access online gambling sites, leading many individuals to be tempted to try their luck, ultimately causing some to become addicted and potentially disrupting their mental well-being. Research on mental health on online gambling has been conducted since 2007 up to the present year, 2023. Therefore, scientific research utilizing bibliometric analysis has become crucial. The aim of this study is to examine current literature on participatory budgeting by assessing publication trends, citation analysis, most-cited authors, and overall themes. We hope that this study can be beneficial for researchers and professionals, especially in the field of mental health. The research employs bibliometric methods on 55 publication documents from the Scopus database spanning from 2007 to 2023. Microsoft Excel is used for frequency analysis, VOS Viewer for data visualization, and Harzing's Publish or Perish for citation counting. The focus of this research is to determine the most common authors, research topics, and citation patterns related to the study of mental health on online gambling. This research endeavour offers a bibliometric scrutiny of the literature regarding mental health as it pertains to online gambling. The inquiry demonstrates that online gambling has manifold consequences on mental well-being, including but not limited to addiction, stress, anxiety, depression, and suicide. Furthermore, this examination pinpoints the lacunae and obstacles within the present literature, while also proposing avenues for forthcoming research. Ultimately, the purpose of this study is to contribute to the knowledge and praxis of mental health professionals who are confronted with issues relating to online gambling.
