TY - JOUR PY - 2021// TI - An analysis of the psychological effects of impending suicide on linguistic patterns JO - Suicide studies A1 - Lawal-Solarin, Foluso M. Williams A1 - Barnes, Donna A1 - Lester, David SP - 6 EP - 19 VL - 2 IS - 1 N2 - The writings of four young men were analyzed using the LIWC, an objective linguistic analysis program. Two writing samples came from young men who died by suicide; one a college student, the other, musician Kurt Cobain. The other two writing samples were from non-suicidal men. It was predicted that the use of first-person pronouns (I and me) would decrease over time in the suicides, but this prediction was not confirmed.
