The Scottish Government suicide prevention program Choose Life has published National Guide on Suicide Prevention in Rural Areas, based on our 2011 work with Cameron Stark and Vincent Riordan: A Conceptual Model of Suicide in Rural Areas

Conceptual model of suicide in rural areas
The conceptual model places suicide within a social, economic and cultural context. There are several potential uses for the model:
• to categorise interventions
• to identify areas where research has already been conducted and where there
are gaps
• to serve as a base for discussions between service commissioners and service
providers on interventions
• to identify areas of promising preventative work.
