Abstract
Gambling Disorder (GD) is an impactful behavioural addiction for which there appear to be under- pinning genetic contributors. Twin studies show significant GD heritability results and intergenera- tional transmission show high rates of transmission. Recent developments in polygenic and multifactorial risk prediction modelling provide promising opportunities to enable early identification and intervention for at risk individuals. People with GD often have significant delays in diagnosis and subsequent help-seeking that can compromise their recovery. In this paper we advocate for more research into the utility of polygenic and multifactorial risk modelling in GD research and treatment programs and rigorous evaluation of its costs and benefits.
