Abstract
The short-term effect of "The Befrienders"--an 11-episode weekly series on B.B.C. 1 portraying the Samaritans as a suicide prevention service--on suicide and undetermined deaths was monitored in Edinburgh. No preventive effect was observed though the series was associated with a dramatic rise in new client referrals to the Edinburgh branch of the Samaritans.Entities:
