Sammanfattning
This article highlights the obstacles and opportunities in implementing a
screening method to identify problem gambling among persons receiving
income support within the social services in Gothenburg. The empirical material
was collected through both a study of problem gambling with the two
screening instruments NODS and NODS-PERC, and five interviews with administrators.
The study shows that it is possible to identify problem gamblers
in social services with both of the screening interviews, but it also illustrates
the difficulties that existed under the implementation of this new approach in
the social services.
