Worker and Caller Variety in Three Crisis Centers

Powell, Evan R.

Suicide and Life-Threatening Behavior, 6, 4, 202-207, Win 76

Worker and caller behaviors are studied and compared in sample of 100 suicide calls to three crisis intervention centers. Verbal behaviors of workers and callers are substantially different, leading to the conclusion that crisis intervention is dissimilarly practiced between centers but similar within them. (Author)
