ABSTRACT:Attempted suicide is considered to be a form of deviant behavior. Multiple suicide attempts are evaluated within the labeling perspective. Specifically, it is determined if labeling theory can explain acts of repeated suicide attempts as a form of deviance. Two hypotheses are created to test the influence of informal labeling on multiple suicide attempts. Family and friends constitute the categories most important in informal labeling. Labeling by them is measurec through a series of behavioral scales. It is hypothesized that the greater the labeling by each of these categories, the greater the likelihood of recurrence of attempted suicide. It is also predicted that the greater the “self concept as suicidal,” the greater the likelihood of recurrence. Labeling by family and friends was found to be significantly related to repeat. Conclusions about the relationship between “suicidal self‐concept” and repeat were

摘要:

ABSTRACT:A survey of the death attitudes and experiences of 54 rehabilitation counselors indicated that their personal beliefs could potentially influence service to disabled people, particularly in the areas of terminal illness and suicide. To balance such influence, continued training of counselors and research efforts concerning this problem are recommended.

摘要:

ABSTRACT:The purpose of this paper is twofold: First, it defines and describes different types of audits and areas of patient care which lend themselves to a quality of performance review. Second, it describes an audit application at a hos pital‐based crisis intervention center and the corrective action taken on the basis of the findings. The major emphasis of the audit was to determine the quality of medical‐psychiatric consultation and to develop criteria for its initiat

摘要:

ABSTRACT:The suicide of Kawabata Yasunari has been studied in terms of loneliness, aestheticism, postwar Japan's mass democracy, and ill health and old age. This paper places focus on the Oedipus complex in relation to Kawabata's concepts of beauty, life, and death. This analysis was supported by the psychosocial data which were provided byJiko no Tenmatsu (An Account of the Incident) by Usui Yoshimi. The book is based on the story told by a maid of Kawabata, who is believed to have played an important role in his suicide. Although it is a novel, Usui claims that he followed the events as told by the reporter as closely as possible.

摘要:

ABSTRACT:The true intent of a suicidal act is sometimes masked by it appearing as an “accident.” Two cases are reported that present a unique opportunity to study suicide attempts that took the form of rock‐climbing “falls” and to study the two people who chose this way to die. Rock‐climbing falls, occasionally speculated about as possible suicidal equivalents yet having no recognition as such in the literature, are illustrated as methods used by these impulsive, action‐oriented and risk

摘要:

ABSTRACT:Durkheim's theory of suicide is examined as it bears on the concept of altruistic suicide. A subtype called heroic altruistic suicide or self‐sacrifice is identified. Relationships are hypothesized between cohesion and self‐sacrifice and rank and self‐sacrifice, and they are tested in combat situations, utilizing official published information on the Congressional Medal of Honor. Altruistic suicide is found to be higher in more cohesive than in less cohesive groups and more likely among enlisted men than among career officers and noncommissioned officers. In addition to testing hypotheses empirically, this study elaborates Durkheim by extending his analysis of altrustic suicide and clarifies his work by delineating sources of error in his hypot
