Abstract
This report presents the results of the first survey of gambling and problem gambling in the State of Georgia. A large sample of Georgia residents aged 18 and over (N=1,550) were interviewed about the types of gambling they have tried, the amounts of money they spend on gambling, and about problematic gambling-related behaviors. The information in this report will be useful in planning for the availability of future gaming opportunities and in the appropriate design of services for problem and pathological gamblers in Georgia.
