Summary
The purpose of this study is to learn about the possible causes of the negative trend in suicide rates in both males and females aged 45-60 in Flanders, Belgium. This will be carried out using a psychological autopsy study.
Detailed description
A case-control psychological autopsy study will be carried out to identify what risk factors are related to suicide in people aged 45-60. People close to the person who died by suicide (next of kin or close friends) will be interviewed. To increase the validity of our findings, a control group will also be interviewed. The control group will be someone who is very close to someone with mental health problems.
