Our goals are to learn about factors responsible for addictive behaviours associated with Video Lottery Terminal (VLT) gambling and Internet use, and to develop programs/strategies aimed at the prevention and treatment of these excessive behaviours. Furthermore, we intend that these programs/strategies will be published in the research literature, and be implemented in the community in New Brunswick and elsewhere.
