Crisis : the journal of crisis intervention and suicide prevention 45, Issue: 2Journal Article
Between 2001 and 2020, Slovenia lost 8,952 lives due to suicides, two thirds of them by hanging. To analyze trends in suicide methods between 2001 and 2020 and to explore relationships between suicide methods and selected sociodemographic characteristic. We focused on methods accounting for 95.7% of all suicides. We performed joinpoint regression to examine changes in suicide rates by respective methods and multivariate logistic regression analyses to study sociodemographics associated with specific suicide methods. A gender-specific annual decrease in suicide rates was observed in all methods except for sharp objects and jumping or lying in front of a moving object. Age was statistically significant in the use of firearms and jumping or lying in front of a moving object, while gender was significant in all methods. Associations were found between education, marital status, region of residence, and various suicide methods. The results are potentially culturally specific. Certain sociodemographics seem to be associated with the selection of the method.
