abstract="The paper presents a content-analytical comparison between &quot;last letters&quot; of suicidals (SUI) and parasuicidals (PARA). So far studies on this topic are mostly performed by &quot;external&quot; parameters, e.g. sociodemographic or anamnestic data. The content-analytical approach provides to describe the presuicidal situation on base of &quot;internal&quot; variables. Compared with the suicidal notes the parasuicidal communication can be evaluated as more ambivalent, emotionally disturbed, and cognitively restricted. The successful reclassification of the notes into the two samples by a stepwise discriminant analysis supports the hypothesis, that both groups are distinct even on base of internal variables.<p /> <p>Language: de</p>",
