Sažetak
Suicidal behaviur is one of the leading causes of injury and death in all age groups all around the world. Police officers often encounter people who threaten to take their own lives . Police/crisis negotiators are officers who are trained and specialized for such kinds of interventions. In fact, the majority of their interventions involve suicide attempts. Everyday police practice, as well as scientific research in this field, shows that crisis negotiation is one of the most effective police tools for solving various crisis interventions - including suicide attempts. The aim of this paper is to present effective techniques of crisis negotiators in situations of suicide attempts as well as characteristics of a successful negotiator and warning signs in the perpetrator’s behaviour. Two examples from practice and proposals for improving the crisis negotiation in Croatia are also described.
