Bachelor Thesis from the year 2020 in the subject Psychology - Personality Psychology, grade: A, University of Ghana, Legon, language: English, abstract: This study is aimed at determining the relationship between the big five personality factors and sports betting among young adults in Accra, Ghana.

The study was a quantitative study which involved 190 participants from Accra, Ghana. The instrument used in the study includes a Mini IPIP FFM Personality scale and a Gambling Brief Questionnaire. Findings from the study indicated that, personality types extraversion, neuroticism and openness to experience had a significant positive relationship with sports betting.
