Evidence from Uganda Aids Indicator Survey 2011 indicates that over 31% youths who have never married are engaged in sexual intercourse but have never tested for HIV. Gambling is clearly on the increase in major towns and cities drawing in several youths. However, the risk that this practice poses on the youth's sexual behavior has not been investigated in Uganda. This study intended to fill this gap. This study examined the sexual risk associated with gambling among youths in Rubaga Division of Kampala Capital City of Uganda. The study employed a quantitative cross sectional design to survey 397 youths aged 15 to 24\u00a0years. It employed a systematic sampling scheme in selecting households with youths who responded to the household survey questionnaire. Results showed that more male than female youths are engaged in gambling, majority of whom start gambling below 18\u00a0years. Most of the gambling youths are pulled by competition with peers and desire to earn money. Compared with nongambling youths, gambling youths have more sexual encounters, initiate sexual activity at a young age, have unprotected sex, have sex with more than one partner whom they do not know their HIV status, and have sex under the influence of alcohol. The study recommends for government to form and enforce policies to regulate gambling with a view of minimizing its associated risks especially unsafe sex. Through the ministry of health and civil society organizations, government can create programs to reach the gambling youths with sexual reproductive health services.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1002\/hpm.2804","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2019,5,9]],"date-time":"2019-05-09T13:31:25Z","timestamp":1557408685000},"page":"1456-1468","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":7,"title":["Sexual risk associated with gambling among the youth in Rubaga Division, Kampala"],"prefix":"10.1002","volume":"34","author":[{"given":"Victor","family":"Kiwujja","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Lida Africa (a Monitoring Evaluation Firm)  Kampala Uganda"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-8535-1835","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"John Francis","family":"Mugisha","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Cavendish University Uganda  Kampala Uganda"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2019,5,9]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_7_2_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/B978-0-08-045396-5.00179-2"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_3_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/B978-0-12-373932-2.00293-3"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_4_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.jadohealth.2010.05.003"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_5_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.psychres.2013.06.017"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_6_1","unstructured":"MoFEPD 2014.Budget Speech:Financial Year2014\/15 12th June2014.
