Title | Psychosocial influences on prisoner suicide: a case-control study of near-lethal self-harm in women prisoners |
Authors | Marzano, L., Hawton, K., Rivlin, A. and Fazel, S. |
Abstract | We examined the psychosocial influences on female prisoner suicide by carrying out a study of near-lethal self-harm. We interviewed 60 women prisoners who had recently engaged in near-lethal self-harm (cases) and 60 others who had never carried out near-lethal acts in prison (controls) from all closed female prison establishments in England and Wales, using mixed quantitative and qualitative methods. |
