Outline of the LLLP
What is the LLLP?
Launched in 2006 the LLLP is a five age cohort, four data collection wave longitudinal study that examines the incidence and determinants of gambling and problem gambling. The study was guided by four broad research questions:
1.What are the normal patterns of continuity and discontinuity in gambling and problem gambling behavior?
2.What bio-psychological variables and behavior patterns are most predictive of current and future responsible and problem gambling?
3.Are there distinct sub-groupings of gamblers and problem gamblers with different trajectories and predictors?
4.What etiological model of problem gambling is best supported by the longitudinal findings
