Older Adults & Problem Gambling: Journal of Gambling Issues - Special Issue 39

Registered Member

There is a distinct scarcity of research on problem gambling in the older population (+ 55 years of age) despite a steady increase in prevalence rates (see Matheson et al., JGI, 39, 43-61). In this special issue of the Journal of Gambling Issues (JGI), released in September 2018, a work group funded by the Ontario Ministry of Health and Long-Term Care and Gambling Research Exchange Ontario, summarize recent work in this field and identify paths for future study. Contributions include manuals on Best Practices for the prevention and treatment of problem gambling in the older population, scoping reviews, and original research from experts at the Centre for Addiction and Mental Health, the Dalla Lana School of Public Health, and other institutions.
