Zusammenfassung:The integrated motivational-volitional (IMV) model of suicidal behavior attempts to synthesize, distill, and extend our knowledge and understanding of why people die by suicide, with a particular focus on the psychology of the suicidal mind. In brief, the IMV proposes that suicidal behavior results from a complex interplay of factors, the proximal predictor of which is one’s intention to engage in suicidal behavior. Looking forward, the model lends itself to detailed empirical examination. (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2017 APA, all rights reserved)
