Examination of 1,051 completed suicides from an Australian state showed that 33% left a suicide note. Those leaving a suicide note were more involved in interpersonal conflicts (including divorce), were less often psychiatrically disturbed, and were less likely to be under medical supervision. The large number of differences suggests that it may not be possible to learn about suicide in general from a study of suicide notes alone.
对澳大利亚一个州的 1051 例自杀案例的研究显示，33%的自杀者留下了遗书。留下遗书的自杀者更多地卷入人际冲突（包括离婚），较少出现精神障碍，也较少接受医疗监护。大量差异表明，仅通过对自杀遗书的研究，可能无法全面了解自杀现象。
