NCT ID NCT07284238
First seen Jun 24, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study aims to develop a detailed model of how suicidal thoughts form, based on interviews with people who have attempted suicide, their family and friends, and healthcare professionals in Catalonia, Spain. Researchers will analyze these conversations to find common themes and patterns. The goal is to better understand the personal and social factors behind suicidal thinking, not to test any treatment.
