TY - JOUR PY - 2015// TI - What is suicidal tendency? JO - Nervenheilkunde A1 - Schneider, B. SP - 421 EP - 425 VL - 34 IS - 6 N2 - We are predominantly confronted with suicidal tendency in the medical- and psychosocial field of counselling, crisis intervention and medical-psychotherapeutical-and-psychiatric (emergency) treatment. Suicidal tendency has to be seen in the context of an exceptional mental situation - illness or crisis - and is an important task for therapy and prevention in the psycho-social and psychiatric services and must be recognized in time. This article presents a summary of definitions, models of development and etiopathogenesis, recognition, diagnostics and epidemiology of suicidal behaviour and of risk factors for suicide. © Schattauer 2015.
