Definitions of suicidal behavior: lessons learned from the WHo/EURO multicentre Study

D De Leo et al. Crisis. 2006.

Abstract

Based on the experience matured during the 15 years of the WHO/EURO Multicentre Study on Suicidal Behavior, this paper provides an excursus on main elements that characterize components for definitional needs. It describes the rationale for choosing the initial set of definitions within the study and the subsequent problems and developments. As a result, unifying terminologies are proposed.
