Title

SELF- BURNING IN THE PROVINCE OF MAZANDARAN

Pages

  13-24

Abstract

 Objectives: This study was designed to examine the demographic features, correlates, motives and the status of the people who commit self-burning behavior. Method: In a descriptive study, 318 self-burning cases admitted within a period of three years to the only burn center in the province of MAZANDARAN were studied through a demographic questionnaire and a semi- structured interview. Findings: The average age of subjects was 27 and 83% of them were females. Most of the subjects were married housewives with an education at the high school level. 62% of the subjects had engaged in SELF- BURNING behavior impulsively. The major reasons for SELF- BURNING were assessed to be family feuds and marital discords. The occurrence of self-burning was mostly common in the day time hours and in spring season; the resulting mortality rate was 79%. In the follow-up survey, a male subject was reported to have died of self-hanging SUICIDE 6 years later. An 8-10 year follow up showed no repetition of self-burning amongst the subjects in the study. Results: The demographic features and motivation indicators of the subjects suggest different preventive measures in various situations.
