It's a safe bet that problem gamblers will seek 'Four Es' 

Published on 31 August, 2004 

It's a safe bet that problem gamblers will also strive for Escape, Esteem, Excitement and Excess.

PhotoID:1559 That is according to Central Queensland University researcher Dr Matthew Rockloff (pictured) who has found a desire for the Four Es to be a reliable indicator of risk for problem gambling without explicitly asking about gambling habits.

"The four traits can provide a basis for further study in harm minimisation, treatment and theory development," Dr Rockloff said.

He revealed preliminary findings of his research during a recent University research seminar.

The research is being funded by Queensland Government.
