Brief Summary: The mains objectives of our project are to coordinate the monitoring of suicides and to identify common or specific suicide risk factors in four overseas DROM-COM French Polynesia La Reunion French Guiana and Martinique by comparing to a site in mainland France Amiens A mixed approach quantitative and qualitative will be used based on semi-directed interviews of the psychological autopsy type
Detailed Description: Epidemiological studies on suicide are rare in Overseas France Nevertheless studies conducted independently in New Caledonia NC and French Guiana were able to highlight a high prevalence of suicides in minority indigenous populations Kanaks and Amerindians These data therefore suggest a socio-cultural variability of suicides within the different territories Psychological autopsies used in NC are an innovative approach that has already proven worldwilde its effectiveness in researching socio-cultural factors and prevalence of mental disorders in suicide subjects Inserm However the qualitative analysis of psychological autopsies even if it is very complete is limited to known factors of suicide risk Given the ethnic specificities of suicidal behavior and the socio-cultural richness of each overseas territory an exploratory anthropologic approach will make it possible to complete identification of risk factors for suicide or combinations of these specific factors profiles

Our project will improve the data collection of suicide cases with the implementation of a network in each site Public Health Department Emergency units Coroner offices GP associations families Then interview with proxies of subjects deceased by suicide will allow psychological autopsy questionnaires SCID to detect mental disorders Life Trajectories to detect life events and their burden Anthropologic for socio-cultural aspects and Psycholinguistic analysis

The total duration of the project will be 24 months with the recruitment of a maximum of 30 cases per site Duration of the inclusion period will be 23 months duration of follow-up per participant 1 month The follow-up interview will be carried out one month after the inclusion interview It will make it possible to establish a post-vention of suicide among the bereaved and an evaluation of the impact of the psychological autopsy interviews and the life trajectories of the bereaved
