https://doi.org/10.51523/2708-6011.2010-7-3-27

Abstract

Social and epidemiological correlates of parasuicide in Gomel region were investigated. Males and females age 18-29 belong to the risk group of parasuicide. Domestic conflict is the main trigger of parasuicide for males and females. Acute and chronic alcohol intoxication is a proximal risk factor for male parasuicide. These data can be useful for national strategy prevention of suicidal behavior.
