parents and offspring. A large and informative Scandinavian registry analysis of suicide attempts in offspring contained data on parents and offspring (Stenager & Qin, 2008), although a limitation is the reliance on clinical records’ data. We also did not examine important relational variables (e.g., suboptimal family environment) and negative life experiences (e.g., child abuse) that were discussed by Brent and Mann (2006). The sample is not population representative.
