| Abstrakt: |
Jumps from bridges constitute a large portion of suicides in industrialized countries. Public opinion has changed in a way that bridge owners are evaluating to take action, even if no third parties are endangered by falling bodies. Research on the sequence of suicidal actions shows that countermeasures exist and prevention is possible. Options for both, non-constructive and constructive measures are presented in a systematic way and illustrated with examples. |
