LONDON, May 13, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — In a newly published study on Slotozilla, the spotlight is shining brightly on the strides and the stumbles in the global journey toward gender equality. Titled Feminism in Numbers, this report dives deep into the latest statistics and societal insights, presenting an accessible, number-packed exploration of feminism today. It’s an eye-opener for anyone curious about where the world stands when it comes to closing the gender gap.

The study finds that 68.4% of the global gender gap is now closed, indicating meaningful progress while underscoring persistent disparities in economic participation, political representation, and workplace equality.

Among the key findings:

Labour Force Participation: Women remain underrepresented globally, influenced by systemic issues such as caregiving burdens and workplace bias.

Wage Gap: Although it has narrowed 1.4 times, the wage gap continues to highlight the need for transparent and fair pay practices.

Political Representation: Female participation in U.S. Senate has increased 13.4 times since the 1950s, reflecting a shift toward more inclusive governance.

Public Sentiment: 60% of Americans believe women are paid less due to unequal treatment; a similar percentage believes men have better access to high-paying jobs.

“At Slotozilla, we believe that sharing credible data around gender equality helps spark informed conversations and drive change. Feminism in Numbers is our contribution to a global dialogue that demands not just awareness, but action,” said Marie Toland, editor of Slotozilla.

“As a company operating in a digital industry, we recognise the importance of supporting equality both in our workplace and in the wider world.”

The report also explores the economic advantages of closing the gender gap. According to McKinsey, advancing gender equality could contribute up to $12 trillion to global GDP by 2025. The OECD and World Economic Forum similarly emphasise that gender parity boosts economic output and societal well-being.

While the numbers show progress, Slotozilla’s report cautions that full gender equality is still more than a century away at the current pace. The report calls for policy reforms, inclusive hiring, and public engagement to accelerate change.

Slotozilla Conducts Study on Psychology of Gambling

Slotozilla has conducted a study on the psychology of gambling, uncovering the hidden influences that shape player behavior. The latest study offers fresh insights into the cognitive and emotional triggers behind gambling decisions, shedding light on the psychological mechanisms at play.

Statistical data combined with psychological analysis show how gambling activates the brain’s reward center and releases dopamine, which is associated with pleasure and motivation. Key findings include:

• 49% of Americans participated in some form of gambling in the past year.

• 26% visited a casino, while 20% placed a sports bet.

• Near wins stimulate the brain similarly to actual victories, leading to an increase in bet size by 3.28 credits and a faster spin time of 0.66 seconds after a near-miss.

Cognitive biases play a crucial role in gambling behavior. The illusion of control leads players to believe their choices impact random outcomes, while the gambler’s fallacy makes them think a losing streak must end with a win. These biases create a compelling yet sometimes deceptive gaming experience.

Additionally, gambling can impact emotional well-being. The study found that gambling initially increases pleasure and excitement, but as play continues, it can lead to stress, financial problems, and even addiction. The six stages of gambling-related mood changes include:

• Initial Excitement: A rush of pleasure from the thrill of winning.

• Return to Natural Mood: The excitement fades, leading to repeated play.

• Increased Stress: Frequent gambling creates financial and emotional burdens.

• Loss of Enjoyment: Gambling no longer feels as thrilling.

• Lowered Mood and Depression: Gambling fails to bring joy, affecting everyday life.

• Lost Ability to Enjoy Normal Activities: Emotional health declines significantly.

Pathological gambling alters two main brain areas:

• Ventromedial Prefrontal Cortex (vmPFC): Influences decision-making and risk-taking.

• Striatum: Shows increased activity even during losses, reinforcing the urge to keep playing. While casual gamblers experience normal brain activity, problem gamblers develop a rewired reward system, responding to losses and near-misses as if they were wins. In the US, 1-4% of adults are estimated to have gambling-related problems

Slotozilla believes that understanding the psychology behind gambling is essential for players, operators, and regulators alike. With responsible gaming at the core of their mission, the aim of Slotozilla is to provide insights that help players make more informed decisions and recognize the factors influencing their gaming habits.
