“…The Productivity Commission identified nine dimensions of accessibility that comprised (1) the number of opportunities to gamble, (2) opportunities to gamble per venue, (3) the number of venues, (4) the opening hours of the gambling venue, (5) conditions of entry, (6) location of venues, (7) social accessibility, (8) cost of initial outlay and (9) ease of use. Most of the relevant research has broadly focused on the 3 first six of these by examining opportunities to gamble, particularly with regard to EGM density (Clarke, Tse, Abbott, Townsend, Kingi & Manaia, 2006;Delfabbro, 2002;Ladouceur, Jacques, Ferland & Giroux, 1999;Ladouceur, Jacques, Sevigny & Cantionotti, 2005;Livingstone, 2001;Marshall, 2005;Marshall & Baker, 2002) and venue proximity to home, work or other convenient locations (Adams, Sullivan, Horton, Menna & Guilmette, 2007;Barron, Staton & Wilshusen, 2002;Boardman & Perry, 2007;Chhabra, 2007;Doran, McMillen & Marshall, 2007;Hinch & Walker, 2005;Marshall, McMillen, Niemeyer & Doran, 2004;McMillan & Doran, 2006;Pearce, Mason, Hiscock & Day, 2008;Perese, Bellringer & Abbott, 2005;Shaffer, LaBrie, LaPlante, Nelson & Stanton, 2004b;Walker & Hinch, 2006;Welte, Wieczorek, Barnes, Tidwell & Hoffman 2004).…”
