本文总结了作者关于经验开放性（一种人格特质）和自杀行为的研究。看起来，在衡量经验开放性的量表上得分较低的人报告自杀想法的可能性较小，但更有可能结束自己的生命。这种明显的差异如何调和？基于自杀意念的表达可能产生适应性后果的前提（例如，通过动员家庭和治疗提供者），假设开放性低的重度抑郁症患者可能会增加自杀完成的风险，部分原因是他们不太可能感觉到或报告感觉到自杀。
This article summarizes the author's work on Openness to Experience (a personality trait) and suicidal behavior. It appears that people who obtain low scores on an inventory measuring Openness to Experience are less likely to report suicidal ideation but more likely to take their own lives. How can this apparent discrepancy be reconciled? Based on the premise that the expression of suicidal ideation can have adaptive consequences (e.g., by mobilizing family and treatment providers), it is hypothesized that people with major depression who are low in Openness may be at increased risk for completed suicide in part because they are less likely to feel, or report feeling, suicidal.
