Coverage of Robin Williams' suicide in Australian newspapers.

Conclusion: Australian newspaper reporting of Robin Williams' suicide was largely consistent with the Mindframe guidelines. In particular, there was good adherence to recommendations designed to minimize the risk of imitative acts, which is positive. The poorer performance of articles in terms of recommendations to do with public education about suicide may be a missed opportunity. (PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2022 APA, all rights reserved)
