Abstract

Concern has been raised about a possible relationship between problem gambling and suicidality, but relatively few studies have examined this. To strengthen the evidence base, Gamble Aware commissioned a project with two objectives. Firstly, to establish whether problem gambling and suicidality are associated. And secondly, to review what data exist or could be collected in order to investigate any association in more depth. This report addresses the project’s first objective. A subsequent report will address the second objective.
