The suicide notes of those using active and passive methods for suicide were compared for the presence of fifty classifications regarding such psychodynamics as perturbation, lethality, relations, self-cognitions, etc. The two sets of notes resembled each other closely. The lone difference was that those using active methods more often communicated that rejection by a significant other was a critical factor; however, this finding was not replicated with a different (and larger) sample
