abstract="With the aid of an instrument constructed by the author especially for the purpose, this study examined the suicidal behavior of a representative sample of the normal population (3086 subjects). The results make it possible to describe a suicidal-depressive personality along the dimensions of its basic elements, its accompanying phenomena and consequences, and finally the genetic aspects of depression. The main elements of both the suicide attempt and the suicidal tendency are identical, although they are more intense and clearcut in the suicide attempt. Another noteworthy result of this study is the frequency data: the suicide tendency was found in 15 to 35% of the cases, according to the various sub-groups; and the suicide attempt in 2.5-13%. These percentages lie far above the currently known estimations.<p /><p>Language: de</p>",
