This research evaluates the connection between gambling and crime, simultaneously taking account of addiction-related mental health, alcohol, and drug use problems, using individual survey panel data collected on 4121 subjects over a period of 5 years. Pathological gambling is statistically significantly associated with elevated rates of crime and can be compared in its impact to substance abuse and mental health variables.
