Attitudes toward the Survivors of Suicide as a Function of the Motive for Suicide.
Lester, David
Omega: Journal of Death and Dying, v22 n3 p215-18 1990-91
Explored the impact of motives expressed in suicide note on reactions of the survivor of the suicide by presenting college students with a hypothetical suicide. Suicide note expressed either anger toward the survivor, self-blame, or desire to escape from psychological pain. Subjects felt it would be harder to express sympathy toward survivors of suicide who expressed self-blame. (Author/ABL)
