Suicidal deaths are probably underreported because some deaths attributed to accidental causes are likely self-inflicted. One study found that nearly 15% of actual suicides were misclassified as nonsuicidal in official death reports. The World Health Organization (WHO) reports that suicide rates may be significantly underreported depending on the processes used by each reporting country.
