摘　　要：目的分析广东地区报纸报道自杀事件的失范现况,促进媒体对自杀事件的规范报道。方法以WHO媒体报道的原则及禁忌为标准,以广东地区具有代表性的5份报纸在2011年全年对自杀事件的报道对象,采用内容分析法从5个方面用27个条目进行分析。结果内容涉及自杀事件的报道总计453篇;99.1%的用词语准确地描述了自杀的结果;99.6%未使用"自杀成功"一词;1篇国外的报道将自杀理由归结为宗教原因。头版报道的新闻共51篇,占所有自杀报道的11.3%,版面中使用大字标题的报道共269篇,占59.4%;当自杀者为有一定社会地位者,置于头版和采用大字标题的比例高于普通民众(P<0.05);37.4%的报道有配图;68.7%详细描述了自杀的方法,96.7%描述了自杀地点;有9篇报道采用渲染的词句进行报道,有4篇报道涉嫌美化自杀行为。96.7%未提及与心理健康相关领域专家协商,52.1%的报道将自杀的原因简单归因,6.2%指出了自杀前有征兆,11.9%明确指出了与自杀相关的精神疾病。结论报纸对自杀事件报道存在较为严重的失范现象,需要编制适合我国社会文化背景的自杀事件报道规范,采取适当的策略提高媒体对规范的依从性。Objective To assess w hether the new spaper reports of suicide in Guangdong province comply with standard reporting guidelines of World Health Organization（ WHO） for promoting standard reporting of suicide in mass media.
