Abstract: | Despite increasing attention to suicide as a preventable outcome associated with mood disorders, little attention has been given to the risk factors for suicide among women. In this paper, we: 1) review the current literature regarding risk factors for suicide among women; 2) address the theories regarding risk and protective factors for women; 3) integrate the findings into a practical assessment of women's risk of suicide in clinical settings; and 4) consider avenues for future research. |
