Biannual literature review Suicide Research: Selected Readings
AISRAP previously published, on a biannual basis, a critical literature review outlining recent advances and promising developments in international research in suicide prevention published in English in international peer-reviewed journals. The main aim of the Selected Readings volumes was to collate all newly released publications (research articles, editorials, letters, and case reports) that explicitly refer to fatal and/or non-fatal suicidal behaviours and related issues. Particular attention was paid to new promising lines of suicide research that carried potential for practical implications in the Australian context.
Each volume had three distinct parts:
- The citation list was a collection of references of all retrieved publications over the preceding 6 months that meet the criteria for inclusion. The publications are catalogued on the basis of their prevailing reference to fatal and non-fatal suicidal behaviours, with various sub-headings (e.g., epidemiology, risk factors, etc.).
- The recommended readings assembled research articles of particular significance. These were provided with abstracts in full, underlining our invitation to read them in their entirety. These papers constitute remarkable advancement in suicide research knowledge.
- The key articles section was a compilation of publications with specific relevance for Australian suicide prevention initiatives. For all key articles, full abstracts were provided along with written comments detailing the findings, as well as the practical implications, of the research.
The Australian Institute for Suicide Research and Prevention holds copyright for the introduction and comments sections.
The current rights holders retained copyright for all abstracts.
