	When Death is Sought Assisted Suicide and Euthanasia in the Medical Context
		As articulated by a prominent suicidologist, the common stimulus to suicide is intolerable psychological pain.
		In fact, hopelessness is a better predictor of completed suicide than depression alone.(16) Feelings of hopelessness and helplessness interact with the perception of psychological pain and the individual's sense that his or her current suffering is inescapable.
		As stated by one psychiatrist: "Pain plays an important role in vulnerability to suicide; however, associated psychological distress and mood disturbance seem to be essential co-factors in raising the risk of cancer suicide."(31) Suffering represents a more global phenomenon of psychic distress.

		Finally, Ahmad’s psychological state now and at the time of the crime also throws into doubt his capacity to stand trial and defend himself.
		The absence of adequate legal and consular assistance, combined with a deteriorating psychological state, may have contributed to Ahmad’s decision, reported in the al-Yaum al-Elektroni interview, to not contest the death sentence.

	20th WCP: Identity Conditions for Indicator State Types within Dretske's Theory of Psychological Content Naturalization
		Even though, as triggering cause, the content of a particular psychological state is explanatorily irrelevant, still it was what the indicator state indicated about external conditions in the past that played a role in the restructuring of an organism's nervous system, such that this (current) token of that psychological state type produces this particular movement.
		If sharing the same (neuro/)physical state type is supposed to "link together" the tokens of I during the learning period with post-learning Is, such that the content of the latter is partially grounded in the causal etiologies of the former, then Dretske's theory is in serious trouble.
		Thus, the identification of an indicator state type with an internal (i.e., non-peripheral) (neuro/)physical state type flies in the face of recent results from neuroscience, while the identification of an indicator state type with a peripheral (neuro/)physical state type is subject to the "too specific" objection.

	Trance state and psychological time
		Psychological time is a natural connective to the inner world.
		As you can experience days or hours within its framework in the dream state and not age for the comparable amount of physical time, so as you develop, you will be able to rest and be refreshed within psychological time even when you are awake.
		You can look through psychological time at clock time and even use clock time then to your greater advantage; but without the initial recognition of psychological time, clock time becomes a prison.

	Psychological Autopsy can help understand controversial deaths - The Crime Library - The Crime library
		A woman says her boyfriend went for a walk in a state park and then he was found dead in the ocean.
		These cases, as different as they are, have something in common: the need for a psychological autopsy to get at the truth. Also called psychiatric autopsy, retrospective death assessment, reconstructive evaluation, and equivocal death analysis, the term refers to a specific method used for examining a person's life—specifically, the life of a dead person.
		The idea of a psychological autopsy is to discover the state of mind of the victim preceding death, because the results may be needed to settle criminal cases, estate issues, malpractice suits, or insurance claims.

	psychological autopsy and suicide assessment
		The primary reason for conducting a psychological autopsy is to determine the status of insurance coverage.
		Obviously, the psychological state of the individual, prior to his or her death, is of utmost importance in assessing whether that death might possibly be the result of suicide, as opposed to other causes.
		It is impossible to assess a death as suicide based purely on physiological results because the mental status of the individual must be considered and is not present in a medical autopsy.

	Mini-mental state examination - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The mini-mental state examination (MMSE) or Folstein test is a brief 30-point questionnaire test that is used to assess cognition.
		The presence of purely physical problems can also interfere with interpretation if not properly noted; for example, a patient may be physically unable to hear or read instructions properly, or may have a motor deficit that affects writing and drawing skills.
		The enforcement of the MMSE copyright has led to a backlash that bears some resemblance to the one associated with Unisys' enforcement of a patent essential for the creation of gif images and has led to more discussion about open access and open content journals.
