摘要：
A field study was carried out to investigate the possibility of preventing suicide on the London Underground. Four groups of potentially valuable measures were identified with the objectives of : (i) reducing public access to the tracks; (ii) improving surveillance by station staff, (iii) facilitating emergency stops; and (iv) reducing injury. These strategies are discussed.
