Comparing the changing suicide rate in Singapore with the rates in England/Wales and the USA, 1950-1985.

Whereas marriage and birth rates were significantly associated with the time-series annual suicide rate from 1950 to 1985 in England and Wales and birth rates were associated with the annual suicide rate in the USA, neither variable was significantly associated with the annual suicide rate in Singapore. It seems that different theories of suicide may have to be proposed in order to account for the societal suicide rate in Asian nations.

[The effectiveness of suicide prevention centers].

The basic services provided by suicide prevention services as well as research on the evaluation of these services are reviewed whether there is evidence that the services prevent suicide and also how the services might evaluate their internal activities. A plea is made for much greater involvement both by scholars and by counselors in the evaluation of these services, for only by formulating clear goals or hypotheses and examining whether they have been achieved or confirmed can we expect to improve the quality and range of suicide prevention services offered.
