As part of the WHO/EURO Multicentre Study on Parasuicide, the level of suicide intent among female and male parasuicide patients from various European regions was compared. From nine regions, a total of 1,212 parasuicide patients, 752 females and 460 males, were included in the study. Although some statistical significant differences in level of suicide intent between the regions and genders were found, the effect sizes of these relationships were so small that the differences have neither theoretical nor practical significance. As far as level of suicide intent is concerned, the WHO study has succeeded in recruiting a relatively homogeneous group of self-harming patients across borders of region, culture, and country.
作为世界卫生组织/欧洲区域办事处关于蓄意自伤的多中心研究的一部分，对来自欧洲不同地区的蓄意自伤女性和男性患者的自杀意图水平进行了比较。该研究纳入了来自9个地区的总共1212名蓄意自伤患者，其中女性752名，男性460名。尽管发现不同地区和性别之间在自杀意图水平上存在一些统计学上的显著差异，但这些关系的效应量非常小，以至于这些差异在理论和实践上均无意义。就自杀意图水平而言，世界卫生组织的这项研究成功地跨越了地区、文化和国家的边界，招募到了一组相对同质的自我伤害患者。
