鉴于自杀幸存者一词的含义普遍存在混乱，我们建议用一个更准确的术语来指定对自杀遗留下来的人的不同程度的影响，范围从接触自杀的人到受自杀影响的人，最后是那些在短期或长期内因自杀而失去亲密情感依恋的人，作为他们因这种悲惨的丧失而失去情感依恋的结果。我们简要地注意到这一术语的特殊性可能有助于促进更有针对性的研究和干预努力，并呼吁在未来的研究中更密切地调查各种类型的生存。
In light of prevailing confusion over the meaning of the term suicide survivor, we propose a more exact terminology for designating different levels of impact on those left behind by suicide, ranging on a continuum from those exposed to suicide through those who are affected by it and finally to those who are bereaved by suicide in the short- or long-term, as a function of their loss of a close emotional attachment through this tragic form of loss. We briefly note the possible utility of this terminological specificity in promoting more clearly targeted research and intervention efforts, and call for closer investigation of various categories of survivorship in future studies.
