Risk Quiz

	Introduction

Gambling is defined to include betting or wagering on any game of chance, including Bingo and Lotteries. "Problem Gambling", in its general sense, is gambling activity that causes emotional, social, or financial difficulty for a gambler or others that a gambler influences.

The risk-quiz that follows takes only a few minutes to complete. It has been scientifically validated and has been in commercial use for five years. It is intended to be used as a personal, preliminary guide to indicate if you have a gambling problem and/or if you are at risk of developing a gambling problem. It is not intended to substitute for a clinical diagnosis of problem, compulsive or pathological gambling (see Terms/Definitions).

The risk-quiz performs a real-time analysis of your answers to approximately 22 questions, providing you information about whether you currently have a gambling problem and your personal vulnerability to problem gambling. The determination is based on the best scientific information and most recent research studies on problem gambling. Immediately after you have completed all the questions, you will receive your real-time feedback. If you are concerned or worried about your gambling, contact a problem gambling specialist through the 24-Hour Help Lines.
