Abstract:
1. Abstract Affective forecasting refers to the process of predicting emotional reactions to future \ . events. Affective forecasting plays an important role in decision making as it informs \ subjective utility, but it is also prone to prediction errors, such as the 'impact bias': a tendency to overestimate the intensity and duration of future emotional reactions. It has been argued that the impact bias can be considered to be evolutionarily adaptive, as it performs a protective function in motivating people to avoid risky behaviour.

The rate of problem gambling is more than twice as high in adolescents as it is for adults (2%) (Ipsos MORI, 2009), and the younger the age of onset of problem gambling the more severe the problem can be in later life. It has been suggested that help-seeking for gambling problems is uncommon amongst young people (Gupta & Derevensky, 2000; Hardoon, Gupta & Derevensky, 2003) and a number of speculative reasons for this have been presented (Chevalier & Griffiths, 2004; Griffiths, 2001).
