This project will involve both empirical and normative analyses, initially focusing on a specific subset of practices in some European settings. There are publicly available summaries of cases that some review committees deem particularly educational and therefore make accessible. One subset consists of most of those cases in which people have received assisted death for psychiatric illnesses. The first study in this overall project will consist of a qualitative analysis of 66 cases (2011 to 2014 cases published as of July 2015), describing the profiles of the patients as well as outlining how the review committees evaluate such cases. The overall project will also include normative evaluation of this and other practices involving physician assisted death.

该项目将涉及实证分析和规范分析，最初侧重于某些欧洲环境中的特定实践子集。 有一些公开的案例摘要，一些审查委员会认为这些摘要特别具有教育意义，因此可供访问。 其中一个子集包括大多数因精神疾病而接受安乐死的案例。 整个项目的第一项研究将包括对 66 个病例（截至 2015 年 7 月发布的 2011 年至 2014 年病例）的定性分析，描述患者的概况并概述审查委员会如何评估此类病例。 整个项目还将包括对此以及涉及医生协助死亡的其他实践的规范性评估。
