Abstract

This research has considered the phenomenon of juvenile suicide which took place for over twenty years in the provinces of Parma, Piacenza and Brescia (1971-1994). In this period, in the considered provinces, have occurred 138 cases of suicide, among youngs not older than 25 years. Sources of this research have been the Courts of Brescia and Piacenza as well as the Institute of Forensic Medicine of the Hospital of Parma. An apposite schedule of survey for the data has been used; this schedule has permitted to fix the useful indexes, following the parameters of the personal information, of the happening of events during the years, the months and the hours, of the employed means, of the motive and the possible previous attempts. The results of the research seems to show an explicative approach which underlines among the youngs' suicide, and beyond the Ego weakness, a desperate attempt to communicate. The possible preventive strategies should stimulate above all sensibility and competences of adults to understand the trouble signals for fronting them: in this way, these signals would be prevention occasions, not only for the involved youngs, but also for the context.
