We are carrying out the first ever psychological autopsy study in the UK to ascertain the socioecological antecedents of gambling-related suicide. Our research will aid better understanding of the mechanistic relationship between gambling and suicide, how individuals experience gambling-related suicidality, and the role of contributory and mitigating factors. The direction of the mechanistic relationship will be understood from the qualitative element on the study. Our work will provide insights into the warning signs, common themes, and underlying causes of gambling-related suicide, which can inform the development of population wide prevention measures and intervention strategies.
