Abstract

To help people with gambling problems, some casinos have implemented voluntary self-exclusion programs (VSEPs) that permit individuals to ban themselves from the casino. The purpose of the current study is to evaluate the Massachusetts VSEP and to assess the gambling behaviors, problems, and well-being of enrollees across time.
