Articles relating to gaming and gambling are often published in academic journals -- see examples below. Hyperlinks to these publications appear in the 'Links' section at the bottom of this page.

It is useful to be aware that gambling research tends to appear in a wide variety of journals due to the interdisciplinary nature of the subject. Thus, journal indexes are also useful tools to use when searching for articles.
