30 év az öngyilkosság ellen: Munkacsoportunk depresszió- és szuicidprevenciós kutatásainak összefoglalása – 1985–2015

Abstract

In this paper we gather and discuss the results of our workgroup on depression and suicide prevention published between 1985 and 2015. We hope that this summary will focus the interest of the scientific community on suicidology and turn the attention of decision-makers on the fact that despite of its marked decrease in the past three decades, the suicide rate in Hungary is still the second highest in the EU. So, based on expert opinion, joint action is needed in order to achieve a further decrease of suicide rate in Hungary. © 2015, Hungarian Association of Psychopharmacology. All rights reserved.
