Abstract

Psychologists have been researching suicide by various methods for many years with the intention to improve understanding of the reasons behind this act. The most recent research focuses on studying suicide notes that people left before their death. Suicide notes have been studied using many different methods. The most recent method is the theoretical-conceptual analysis, which investigates the most significant suicide theories and tries to identify them among suicide notes. Aside from the main motives behind the act of suicide, this method also tries to identify gender and age differences among people who committed suicide, as well as differences between suicide attempts and completed suicides. The possibility of generalizing the results of these studies is of great importance, as well as practical application with the intention of improving suicide prevention.
