Abstract |
Limited research exists that examines the contribution of family factors to the development and treatment of suicide. Although suicidal behavior occurs within an individual, the context in which it occurs can add necessary insights for understanding and preventing suicide. In this article, the existing literature on the family's psychosocial role in the development of suicidal behavior is reviewed. Additionally, a review of the limited research on the family's role in treatment following a suicidal action is provided. Finally, several directions for future research and clinical work are discussed to enhance our understanding of the family's role in preventing suicide.
