ScholarBank@NUS Repository. | Abstract: | Suicide and parasuicide rates have increased in Singapore since 1980 and in 1986 were estimated to be 13.1 per 100,000 and 92 per 100,000 respectively. Those most prone to suicidal behaviour are the Indians and the aged above 70 years. Jumping from a height is still the commonest method of suicide and self-poisoning is the most popular method of parasuicide. | Source Title: | Medicine, Science and the Law | URI: | http://scholarbank.nus.edu.sg/handle/10635/134059 | ISSN: | 00258024 |
