All-Cause and Cause-Specific Mortality in Parents After the Death of a Child in Taiwan
OBJECTIVE: Research from Western countries suggests that there is an increase in mortality in parents bereaved by the death of a child. Few studies have investigated this issue in a non-Western context. We explored the impact of the death of a child on parental mortality in Taiwan. METHOD: By linking population-based national registers, we followed the 2004-2014 birth cohort ( N = 2,083,972) up until 2016. A total of 11,755 child deaths were iden…

Further, whether the relationship of FLPR and suicide rates vary according to the human capabilities of a given country are examined. Using suicide data obtained from the World Health Organization Statistical Information System, suicide gender ra…

Setting: 120 nationally representative US colleges. Participants: 10 924 randomly selected students. M…
