Abstract

The paper identifies predictors (prognostic parameters) of suicide on the basis of reconstructing subjective semantic fields in depressed patients with suicidal tendencies, analyzing symbols used to represent fear of death and discovering specificity of the link between the notions of death, illness, life and health in the patients examined. In patients with suicidal tendencies death is included in their world image. Death is treated as liberation from suffering, is associated with beauty, justice and usefulness in the semantic field and is felt like an escape into another life, free from suffering.
