Dr. Paulette O'Gilvie | Casino & Gambling Researcher

Dr. Paulette O'Gilvie is a casino and gambling researcher whose 2023 study examined the effect of casino proximity on poverty levels in New York City over five years. In this episode of Evive Live!, Adam and Christina sit down with Dr. O'Gilvie — Faculty Chair, prevention specialist, and member of the Evive Scientific Advisory Board — for a conversation that moves beyond the individual gambler and into the communities surrounding them. She walks through the "Three A's" framework of why urban casino gambling has exploded, what exposure and adaptation theory predicted would happen versus what her data actually showed, and why the sustainability of casino-driven economic development deserves far more scrutiny than it gets. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━🔗 RESOURCES & LINKS🟢 Evive — Digital support for gambling behavior change🌐 https://www.getevive.com/📱 Download the app: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/evive-gambling-support/id6450926060🟣 The Broke Girl Society with Christina Cook — Community and recovery support for women🌐 https://thebrokegirlsociety.com/ 🎙️Apple Podcasts - https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-broke-girl-society-podcast/id1575593868🎙️Spotify - https://open.spotify.com/show/74DP23EzfR6WPpPMLYq45x📺 YouTube Channel - https://www.youtube.com/@thebrokegirlsociety🎧 The Modern Meeting Podcast with Adam Lyons — Gambling recovery, real talk🌐 https://themodernmeeting.com/ 🎙️ Apple Podcasts - https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-modern-meeting/id1779060982🎙️ Spotify - https://open.spotify.com/show/1jMSSKkadnvzbvZl33dzZc📺 YouTube Channel - https://www.youtube.com/@ModernMeeting━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━🔔 Subscribe to Evive Live for new episodes featuring the clinicians, researchers, advocates, and people in recovery who are changing how we think about gambling harm.━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━Evive Live is produced by Evive, a digital health platform dedicated to gambling behavior change.
