    Abstract: 自殺防治已是數十年來全球關注的重要議題。其中一個值得注意的面向是傳統媒體如何報導自殺事件。此類新聞報導往往吸引大量關注,因此具高度刊登誘因;然而,根據健康傳播領域的研究指出,若媒體在報導中缺乏責任感,特別是涉及深受喜愛的公眾人物,便可能觸發「維特效應」(Werther Effect),即引發群眾的模仿自殺行為。為了應對此情況,全球多家新聞機構及國際組織已訂定自殺報導準則。然而,這些措施的實質效果卻鮮少被以實證方式檢視。本研究採用實驗方法,探討當受試者面對名人自殺新聞時,張貼求助專線及相關資源是否真能有效引導其思維偏離自殺意念。研究發現,雖然求助專線在促進「活下去的理由」方面顯示出一定效益,但與名人之間的心理認同感更具影響力:若參與者對該名人感到親近,則更容易獲得繼續生活的激勵。研究最後討論了理論與實務上的意涵。
    Suicide prevention has been an issue of global concern for many decades. One particular area of note is how traditional media deals with suicide. These kinds of articles receive widespread attention and are therefore tempting to publish; however, according to health communication research, news outlets that do so irresponsibly, particularly when it comes to beloved public figures, are at risk of activating the Werther Effect: essentially, copycat suicides in the general population. To combat this, various news agencies and international organizations have developed guidelines for suicide reporting; however, the effectiveness of these measures is infrequently looked at empirically. The present study employs an experimental method to determine whether helplines and additional resources are really effective in steering people's minds aside from their own suicidal ideation when faced with the suicide of a celebrity. Although some support was found for the effectiveness of helplines in promoting reasons to live, identification with the celebrity was a more important factor: if participants felt closer to the celebrity in question, they felt more inspired to continue living themselves. Theoretical and practical implications are discussed.
