The Journal of Gambling Issues (JGI) is the world's first and longest-running online, peer-reviewed academic journal dedicated to understanding problem gambling and gaming. JGI is an open-access, indexed journal that provides a scientific forum for developments in gambling and gaming-related research, policy issues, and treatment.

The Journal of Gambling Issues aims to help make sense of how problem gambling and gaming affect us all, through the publication of peer-reviewed articles that focus on gambling as a social phenomenon, and strategies for the prevention and treatment of gambling problems.

Published by the Centre for Addiction and Mental Health, and funded by the Ontario Substance Abuse Bureau of the Ministry of Health and Long-Term Care, our journal invites manuscripts submitted by researchers and clinicians, people involved in gambling as players, and family and friends of gamblers.

Journal ISSN (electronic): 1910-7595

Publishing Schedule and Fees: Issues are published triannually, although manuscripts are made publicly available as soon as they have been accepted/typeset on the JGI Online First platform.  JGI does not charge any review or publication fees and is fully open access.
