Abstract
The purpose of the study was to identify effective adolescent suicide prevention programs. Three major causes of adolescent suicide in Japan were discussed: (1) intense pressure of examinations to enter schools; (2) peer bullying; and (3) teacher violence toward their students. Suicide in Japan's past, education reform and moral education, and bullying were also addressed. Features of existing suicide prevention programs were examined. This was followed by a description of two successful prevention programs: (1) successful counseling system as professional help; and (2) desirable educational system including proper communication. Conclusions and implications for parents, teachers, and school administrators of this study were drawn.
