Abstract：
BACKGROUND: In 2022, suicide was the second leading cause of external death in Spain (the first among young people aged 15-29 years). This study aims to analyze the presence of myths among emergency first responders and identify the most prevalent false beliefs among them.
METHODS: The research is a observational and descriptive study carried out using a questionnaire composed of a total of 25 myths, with the response options being true or false. A total of 543 professionals took part in the study. All of them could intervene before, during, and after a suicide attempt.
RESULTS: The main finding of the study is that more than 50% of the participants accept as true the statement \"There are more serious and less serious problems\", underlining the idea that caring for patients could be related to the importance the health professional gives to the patients\' problem. Myths such as \"The suicidal person wants to die\" and \"The suicidal person is determined to die\" are also evident.
CONCLUSIONS: The subjective thought the first responder has about suicide could affect their acts, and there is a need to train first responders in suicidal behavior to be able to create an adequate approach.

摘要：
背景：2022年，自杀是西班牙外部死亡的第二大原因（在15-29岁的年轻人中排名第一）。这项研究旨在分析紧急急救人员中存在的神话，并确定其中最普遍的错误信念。
方法：该研究是一项观察性和描述性研究，使用由总共25个神话组成的问卷进行，响应选项为true或false。共有543名专业人员参加了这项研究。他们以前都可以干预，during,在一次自杀未遂之后.
结果：该研究的主要发现是，超过50％的参与者接受“存在更严重和更不严重的问题”的陈述是真实的，强调照顾病人可能与健康专业人员对病人问题的重视有关。诸如“自杀的人想死”和“自杀的人决心死”之类的神话也很明显。
结论：第一反应者对自杀的主观想法可能会影响他们的行为，并且有必要对第一反应者进行自杀行为培训，以便能够创建适当的方法。
