Dear participants,

As part of a scientific study at FOM University, we are investigating why people participate in gambling – regardless of how often or how much they play.

It is explicitly not about addictive behavior, but about general gaming habits and personality.

Sorry, the test sounds interesting, but I do not know German.

Don't you automatically have a translation when you get to a page that is not in your language? I guess it can be set up somewhere in the browser. 

This is how it looks like in the chroome.

When I clicked on the link, the first page with the instructions gave me that German / English option. When the quiz started, it was in German ... with no easy way to translate. I suppose I could manually copy and paste the information into Google Translate ... but I did not have time for that. Maybe later.

Oh, of course I understand, yes, I thought of that too, but if you don't have time for it, maybe another time.😉

Yes, Google Chrome immediately translates the text I open

sites, even when I don't want to. 🙂

One gets the impression that the researchers, compilers

test, very far from gambling

games. Do they know that in German-speaking countries there are

many LAND-BASED casinos? How to answer the question

about SPENDING, if the player often and quite a bit WINS?

Да, у меня Google Chrome сразу переводит открываемые

сайты, даже, когда я не хочу.  🙂

Создаётся впечатление, что исследователи, составители

теста, очень далеки от азартных

игр. Знают ли они, что в немецкоязычных странах есть

множество НАЗЕМНЫХ казино? Как отвечать на вопрос

о ТРАТАХ, если игрок нередко и немало ВЫИГРЫВАЕТ?

Hello, I guess you are overcomplicating the matter a bit.

If you don't mind, spending is still spending; what you are suggesting is more about balance in my books. 🙂 Land-based casinos: 10 or just one? What seems to be the problem? Just make a quick guess calculation. The better the question, the more value feedback has...

Speaking of which, I get it, and it may feel funny when such research or questionnaires are conducted purely by academics lacking the real experience - but hey, they seem to care. 😀

Hello! I (and all Slavs) like it

Your "happy" nickname. :) It was one of

reasons for my registration here. Another is a good

translation from any language. True, there are doubts

in the pleasingness of this. After all, this way people will be able to build

a high tower or even beat roulette.

Your high level of professionalism was evident even

in that, without opening (apparently) the page with the test,

You were able to argue with me convincingly.

But there, indeed, in almost every section,

where questions are specifically related to gambling,

incompetence is evident. "Baby talk on the lawn"

the inhabitants of today's Northern Black Sea region would say.

Especially in its port cities one can also hear:

"heavy as an anchor... bitter as poison... wound around the screw,

I'm vomiting, further than I can see..."

Oh yes, I wish the academics even greater academic excellence.

Здравствуйте! Мне (и всем славянам) нравится

Ваш "радостный" nickname. :) Это была одна из

причин моей регистрации тут. Другая - это хороший

перевод с любых языков. Правда, есть сомнения

в богоугодности этого. Ведь так люди смогут построить

высокую башню или даже победить рулетку.

Ваш высокий профессионализм проявился даже

в том, что, не открывая (видимо) страничку с тестом,

Вы смогли убедительно мне возразить.

Но там, действительно, почти в каждом разделе,

где вопросы связаны конкретно с азартными играми,

заметна некомпетентность. "Детский лепет на лужайке"

сказали бы жители нынешнего Северного Причерноморья.

Особенно в его портовых городах можно также услышать:

"тяжёлый, как якорь... горький, как яд... намотал на винт,

блюю, дальше, чем вижу..."

Ах да, желаю академикам ещё более высокой академичности. 

😁😎😉

I just knew your response would be awesome!!

Though I had no idea you were aware of my nickname surname. Originally it is "Jaderna," not very cool for a few European countries, I guess 😀.

Honestly, I'm very pleased that you enjoy the translation we provided here. I really am!

Thank you for brightening my day with those really cool sayings!

I wish you a fair day and stay awesome! 🐱‍🏍

Well ... I went back and took the test manually through Google translate ... I do not think it did a good job translating.

Also, like usual, I have to wonder what they were really testing. The choices did not seem well thought out for the gambling questions. I also fell through some cracks (where I did not agree with any of the answers but had to choose one anyway) and it seemed geared more for online gambling rather than traditional brick and mortar gaming.

I typically am not the "average" anything when it comes to these tests ... I am the one that is a statistical outlier.

I would say that this is also good feedback, at least the one who made such a questionnaire knows what to look out for or what to improve. 

So even criticism can be helpful sometimes. 

I hope the player will read it and it will be a bit more sophisticated next time.🙂
