Abstract copyright UK Data Service and data collection copyright owner.The Gambling Behaviour Quarterly Telephone Survey produces overall official statistics estimates of gambling participation, prevalence of problem gambling and perceptions of gambling based on a set of questions commissioned by the Gambling Commission in a standalone telephone survey conducted by Yonder.
