Data for suicide statistics can only come from official findings of suicide by a coroner, but this is a finding they are often reluctant to reach. The purpose of this project is to investigate how statistical calculations of suicide are dependent upon its coronial determination. The research is not only expected to result in more defensible national suicide data, it also aims to clarify the degree to which the recurrent 'problem' of suicide data may lie in the coronial construction of suicide itself. Expected benefits of the project include the clarification of the role of the coroners regarding suicide determination, and the more effective targeting of suicide prevention programs.

自杀统计数据只能来自验尸官对自杀的官方调查结果，但这是一个他们通常不愿意得到的发现。这个项目的目的是调查自杀的统计计算是如何依赖于它的冠状测定。这项研究不仅有望产生更有说服力的国家自杀数据，还旨在澄清自杀数据中反复出现的“问题”在多大程度上可能在于自杀本身的冠状结构。该项目的预期好处包括澄清验尸官在自杀判定方面的作用，以及更有效地针对自杀预防计划。
