This book presents current evidence of new perspectives for the prevention and appropriate management of depression in people across the life course. Special attention has been dedicated to facilitating factors for the development of health system capacity and the effectiveness of the different types of interventions. The first part of the book reviews the innovations in global prevention and non-pharmacological treatments for children, adolescents, and youths. The second part reviews interventions for adults across the lifespan, including older adults and caregivers. Despite the efforts to tackle depression, the COVID-19 pandemic directly or indirectly affected the mental health of the population, including an increase in the incidence of depressive disorders, which are underdiagnosed and undertreated in young and older people. Because of the characteristics of adolescence and older adulthood, people can consider depression signs and symptoms as natural, neglecting a proper diagnosis. To address these challenges in the clinical management of depression, Prevention and Early Treatment of Depression Through the Life Course presents a life course perspective on the analysis and treatment of depression to help clinical psychologists, psychiatrists and other mental health professionals understand the mechanisms associated with the onset of depression and identify/develop proper evidence-based treatments for different ages and in different circumstances.

The first section of the book focuses on theoretical frameworks and sociocultural dimensions, exploring the subjective experiences of suicidal thoughts and behaviors within diverse social contexts. It examines theoretical models, the role of personality disorders, and perspectives from indigenous communities, as well as the experiences of transgender and gender non-conforming individuals, highlighting their implications for research and clinical practice. The second section focuses on clinical assessment and psychosocial interventions for suicide risk. It provides tools for early detection, evaluation, and intervention, while also addressing prevention and postvention strategies across various settings. Additionally, it explores the growing role of digital technologies in suicide prevention and treatment, offering insights into their potential applications and impact.Suicide is a significant global public health issue, claiming over 700,000 lives each year. It accounts for approximately 1.3% of all deaths, with around 80% occurring in low- and middle-income countries. In this context, the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) have prioritized reducing suicide mortality as a key target for improving global health by 2030.New Perspectives on Suicidal Behavior: Cultural Context, Clinical Assessment, and Intervention is designed for clinical psychologists, psychiatrists, and other mental health students and professionals, advocating for a shift toward multidimensional, culturally informed frameworks to enhance the understanding, assessment, and intervention of suicidal behavior across diverse contexts.
