Abstract
|
|
|
This study is to understand how ’perceived burdensomeness’ and ’failed belongingness’ affect elderly suicidal ideation. 550 men and women, who were over 64 years old and lived in Pusa n?Gyeong-Nam area, were surveyed. The result revealed that there are significant differences on their state of marriage, family structure, job status, economic satisfaction, health, and religion. Especially both ’perceived burdensomeness’ and ’failed belongingness’ have statistically significant
major effects. On the base of the result of this study, we discussed the political and practical implications to prevent suicide among the elderly.
