로고테라피를 적용한 자살예방교육

Abstract

Due to the high social interest in suicide, suicide prevention education is becoming more popular. However, as a result of analyzing the content of suicide and suicide prevention education, it is not an education that can actually help in terms of suicide prevention. It only conveys knowledge about suicide. Analyzing the underlying factors of people who committed suicide, they complain of an inner emptiness and an existential emptiness, a feeling of lack of value, purpose, and meaning in life. Therefore, suicide prevention education should include the contents dealing existential emptiness. In order to do that, logotherapy will be the key to the new suicide prevention education, since it includes the true meaning in life. By examining the basic concepts of logotherapy, such as pain, responsibility, and freedom of will, we can complement the lack of existing education. This will help to recognize the creative, experiential, and attitude values, which are ways to discover the meaning of life in the program, and realize them in life. We present the method of applying the logotherapy method to short-term and long-term education of suicide prevention education. Also we identified what needs to be dealt with in each age group. In addition, by presenting a suicide prevention education program for parents of teenagers, we are looking for ways to utilize it.
