No systematic survey of digital resource usage in the humanities has ever been undertaken – and the factors for use and non-use of digital resources are unknown. The ...

Background: Suicide is a significant public health concern, which impacts on health outcomes. Few suicide research studies have been interdisciplinary.

From this interdisciplinary research platform, a mediated e...
