Abstract
The purpose of this study is to identify the influence of problem gambling on suicidal ideation and suicidal attempts of school adolescents and out-of-school adolescents. Data were obtained from the 2018 Survey on Youth Gambling Problems and analyzed using logistic regressions. The results of this study were as follows: First, Out-of-school adolescents have more problems with the problem gambling severity, experience a decline in academic performance due to gambling, experience of borrowing money from acquaintances of lenders, suicidal ideation and suicidal attempts than school adolescents. Second, regardless of whether they attended school, experience of borrowing money from lenders was identified as significant variable of suicidal ideation and attempt. Third, problem gambling severity, experience of borrowing money from acquaintances of lenders and a decline in academic performance appeared to influence suicidal ideation and suicidal attempts of school adolescents. Based on this results, we suggested the method to decrease suicide due to problem gambling.
