The goal of the research project being funded by GambleAware is to create a new framework for the harm caused by gambling in Great Britain.
The project aims to expand on the earlier conclusions from a scoping review titled Frameworks and Measurement of Gambling Related Harm: A Scoping Study, which was carried out by the National Centre for Social Research and the University of Plymouth on behalf of GambleAware and published in July 2023.
In addition to building upon and adapting other frameworks that have been established in other jurisdictions and related policy areas, the new research project will address issues with the Problem Gambling Severity Index that have been identified in the screening and assessment of harm.
