Doing the right thing – Ethical issues in designing suicide prevention studies.

Crisis: The Journal of Crisis Intervention and Suicide Prevention, Vol 44(1), 2023, 1-6; doi:10.1027/0227-5910/a000899As both researchers and institutional review boards or human research ethics committees (referred to here as “research ethics committees”) have a role in designing suicide prevention studies, this editorial discusses tensions that have been noted between these two parties and their views on dealing with ethical issues in suicide research. It advocates for the use of consensus recommendations encompassing evidence-based and lived-experience informed guidance and for thorough collaboration to enhance and sustain the design and conduct of ethical suicide research contributing to effective suicide prevention.
