As part of the Gambling Research Lab, Alexander investigates cognitive biases as they relate to scratch card gambling. Specifically, he is interested in how pieces of information (e.g., unclaimed prize information), presented to scratch card players, may bias their gambling related decisions, thus leading them to engage in irrational and potentially problematic gambling behaviours.
