| Concept | Possible research questions |
|
| Demographics | What are the differences in prominent risk factors for suicide based on countries’ economic progress? (high-income versus low- and middle-income) |
| What are the differences in risk factors for suicide depending on the environment (home, school, and work)? |
| How do ethnicity, race, sexual orientation, gender identity, and refugee status relate to suicide? |
|
| Stages of suicidality | Are risk factors for suicide dependent on the stage of suicide (suicidal ideation, plan, attempt, and death)? |
| How can we connect preventive interventions to stages of suicidality? |
|
| Society and family | How can familial factors like parental marital status, loneliness, family functioning, and family conflict be addressed and linked to preventive interventions for suicide? |
|
| Life adversities | How can adverse life conditions be addressed and connected to preventive interventions for suicide?
How do childhood and adulthood adversities impact the stages of suicidality and respective preventive strategies? |
|
| Preventive technologies | What technological mediums (e.g., mobile, web, AR, VR, games, robot, smartwatch, or audio-visual technology) can be explored for developing preventive interventions? |
| How can internet communities (e.g., subreddits and twitter spaces) be utilized to create preventive strategies? |
| How can persuasive technologies be used to develop technologies for preventive intervention? |
| What role will the stage of suicidality and time period play in the development of tailored persuasive interventions? |
