Abstract

This study investigates the differences in online gambling addiction, psychological distress, and social stigma considerations between men and women. Furthermore, this study examines the moderating role of gender in the relationship between social stigma and online gambling addiction, and between addiction and psychological distress. This research involved 191 respondents, with 128 men and 63 women. Results showed that men have significantly higher levels of addiction, psychological distress, and consideration of social stigma compared to women. Social stigma has a significant positive effect on addiction, while addiction itself has a positive impact on psychological distress for both genders. However, gender does not moderate these relationships, suggesting that the mechanisms influencing addiction and psychological distress are universal across genders. This study emphasises the need for inclusive preventive interventions, particularly targeting young men, and social support-based and empathetic educational approaches to reduce addictive behaviors and mitigate the psychological consequences of online gambling.

Abstract

Purpose: This research examines smoking cessation among students at seven universities following pictorial health warnings under Government Regulation No. 28 of 2024 on Tobacco Control. Using the Theory of Planned Behavior, it analyzes how attitudes toward smoking’s health impacts and perceived behavioral control influence smoking cessation through pictorial warnings as an intervening variable, aiming to foster a healthier Indonesian society. Research Methodology: This quantitative study used purposive sampling with 200 student respondents who quit smoking at seven universities in Soloraya. Data were collected through surveys and interviews, analyzed using item validity, reliability, goodness-of-fit, and Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) to test variable influences, with moderating analysis conducted via AMOS 21. Results: The results of quantitative research showed that two independent variables directly influenced students' smoking cessation behavior, with attitude having a dominant influence. Pictorial health warnings acted as an intervening variable. Conclusions: The research concludes that attitude values and perceived behavioral control significantly influence students’ smoking cessation behavior. It highlights the need for government regulation, increased tobacco excise, and family support, with recommendations for further research on broader smoking cessation models. Limitations: The study’s subjects were limited to students who quit smoking at seven universities in Soloraya. Future research should include students across Central Java or nationwide and enhance the model by adding moderating variable tests for broader applicability and deeper analysis. Contribution: This study reinforces the Theory of Planned Behavior by introducing pictorial health warnings as an intervening variable and urges the Indonesian Ministry of Health to expand warning displays to enhance fear and awareness of smoking’s negative health impacts.
