Abstract
Utilising responses from over 3500 transitioned Australian Defence Force (ADF) members, this is believed to be the first comprehensive study of gambling problems in recently transitioned veterans in Australia.
The study aimed to explore the relationship between gambling, and transitioning from the military in ADF veterans, taking a specific look at levels of gambling problems, risk factors, and links between trauma, suicidality, and gambling harm.
Data for this project was collected as part of the Transition and Wellbeing Research Programme, the most comprehensive study undertaken in Australia on the impact of transitioning out of the military.
