There are many factors that can affect the individual’s mental health and thus lead them to commit suicide. This study, focuses on the social and economic factors that may contribute to the suicide rates in all provinces of Turkey. Possible effects of these factors are studied in an 8 year period between 2012-2019 using standard longitudinal data modelling methods and hybrid modelling methods. Standard longitudinal data models include; fixed effect models, random effect models and transition models whereas hybrid models include Mixed Effect Regression Tree(MERT) models, Mixed Effect Random Forest(MERF) models, Random Effect - Expectation Maximization Trees(RE-EM Tree) models. The overall results suggest that the divorce and health- care accessibility of the provinces have significant relation with the suicide rates of provinces. Another observed result was the hybrid models overall performed better than the standard longitudinal data models.

The relative specificity of excessive reassurance-seeking to depressive symptoms and diagnoses among clinical samples of adults and youth
Joiner, TE; Metalsky, GI; Gençöz, Faruk; Gençöz, Tülin (2001-03-01)
In addition to playing a role in the deterioration of depressed people's interpersonal environment, excessive reassurance-seeking may be implicated as a vulnerability factor for depression. If so, excessive reassurance-seeking should display relative specificity to depression versus other forms of psychopathology. Two studies of psychiatric inpatients (Study 1 on adults and Study 2 on children) tested this possibility. In Study 1 a Depressed group obtained higher reassurance-seeking scores than an Other Dis...
