DESCRIPTION:Suicidal behaviour and\, in particular\, death by suicide are 
 the result of a complex interplay of several risk factors. It has long bee
 n known that interpersonal factors have an influence on the suicide rate: 
 for example\, the rate is higher among people who are single\, widowed or 
 living alone.\nNevertheless\, living alone is a life-condition\, while the
  feeling of loneliness is more related to the subjective perception of the
  quality and quantity of the social network. It is therefore questionable 
 whether these are individual or interpersonal risk factors. There are ongo
 ing debates about the definitions of loneliness and related concepts and t
 hus also about their measurement in research data. Regardless\, studies ha
 ve shown that the role of loneliness and living alone in the development o
 f suicidality depends on demographic\, psychological\, mental health\, cul
 tural and economic factors\, among others. A study from England showed tha
 t age influences the level of risk and that the age group of 15 to 34-year
 -olds who are lonely or live alone have the highest (16-fold increased) ri
 sk. Another study found that men living alone had a higher risk of dying b
 y suicide\, regardless of loneliness. Studies from Slovenia indicated a ch
 ange in social and emotional loneliness during the COVID-19 pandemic\, but
  at the same time suicide rates did not change as dramatically as loneline
 ss. The presentation will explore the results from different countries and
  perspectives. \n\nThis seminar is hosted in person at the Department of P
