Zusammenfassung:Suicide rates and risk and protective factors vary across religions. There has been a significant increase in research in the area of religion and suicide since the article, “Religion and Suicide,” reviewed these issues in 2009. This current article provides an updated review of the research since the original article was published. PsycINFO, MEDLINE, SocINDEX, and CINAHL databases were searched for articles on religion and suicide published between 2008 and 2017. Epidemiological data on suicidality and risk and protective factors across religions are explored. Updated general practice guidelines are provided, and areas for future research are identified.
