Now, however, on the mobile phones that are in almost everybody&rsquo;s pockets, the industry&rsquo;s growth has taken a darker turn, with game design using a range of <strong>mechanisms that encourage user spending</strong> and can help normalize gambling habits. These are the findings of a study led by researchers at the <strong>Universitat Oberta de Catalunya</strong> (<a href="https://www.uoc.edu/en" target="_blank">UOC</a>) published in the journal <strong>Entertainment Computing,</strong> which reveals a consistent relationship between these hidden mechanisms and behaviors associated with problematic gambling among young people. </div> <p> <figure> <img class="my-0 rounded-md" loading="lazy" srcset=" /posts/1767106852410-videojuegos-gastar/featured_hu1737131149622890806.jpg 330w, /posts/1767106852410-videojuegos-gastar/featured_hu8011528528621121170.jpg 660w, /posts/1767106852410-videojuegos-gastar/featured_hu6889070048174023166.jpg 1024w, /posts/1767106852410-videojuegos-gastar/featured_hu10056538336684395963.jpg 2x" src="https://notaspampeanas.com/posts/1767106852410-videojuegos-gastar/featured_hu8011528528621121170.jpg" alt="Image by Mahmoud Yahyaoui on Pexels" /> </figure> <strong>Image by [Mahmoud Yahyaoui](<a href="https://www.pexels.com/es-es/@391110010/" target="_blank">https://www.pexels.com/es-es/@391110010/</a> on Pexels)</strong></p>
