abstract="The extremely high suicide rate in Sri Lanka is explained by a psychological analysis of the way in which Sri Lankans deal with conflicts. This &quot;conflict culture&quot; includes psychological factors, such as high rates in collectivism and power distance, repressive education, influence of foreign cultures, religion, and posttraumatic stress symptoms. Structural changes toward another &quot;conflict culture,&quot; including conflict prevention and conflict solution in families and communities, are proposed.<p /> <p>Language: en</p>",
