Abstract

People who completed suicide in West Berlin and left suicide notes were found to differ in sex, age, method used for suicide and the reason for suicide, compared with those not leaving notes. These results suggest that conclusions from research into the psychodynamics of suicide based on suicide notes may be biased.

摘要

研究发现，在西柏林完成自杀并留下遗书的人与未留遗书的人相比，在性别、年龄、自杀方式及自杀原因方面存在差异。这些结果表明，基于遗书对自杀心理动力学进行研究所得出的结论可能存在偏差。
