This study investigates Self-Destructive Behavior of Hannah Baker in Thirteen Reasons Why novel, conducted in qualitative approach analysis of self-destructive behavior of the main character and what reasons or the causes of it through the narratives in the Thirteen Reasons Why novel. The goal of the study is to analyze how self-destructive behavior impacted the main character, Hannah Baker which is described using the theory of Self-Destructive Behavior and Defense Mechanisms by Sigmund Freud (1966). The result of this study shows that Hannah Baker developed the self-destructive behavior as a defense mechanisms from herself that triggered by trauma from the past. It started with the non-suicidal self-destructive behavior but soon turns into the suicidal self-destructive behavior. This study also shows how a suicide can really be an impact of the behavior that happens in the novel resulted from a non-suicidal self-destructive behavior that is not handled well, and all the mistreatments that the main character felt which produce the desire for ending her life.Keywords: Self-Defense Mechanism, Self-Destructive Behavior, Sigmund Freud, Suicide, Thirteen Reasons Why.

Mouse skin transplantation is an established in vivo model used to investigate the T-cell-mediated immune response of acute allograft rejection. The critical endpoint of this model is complete rejection of the allograft. However, visual judgement of this end stage of rejection is an arbitrary process and difficult to standardize. To overcome this problem, we established a monitoring method based on digital photography. Serial pictures from skin allografts of individual animals (C57BL/6 on BALB/c) were taken with a digital camera mounted on a microsurgical microscope. Thereby, the description and the correct assessment of early stages of rejection were possible due to the magnification of grafts by the microscope. Rejection scores were introduced to describe different stages from retained to completely rejected grafts. With cyclosporine A as a standard immunosuppressive treatment, we showed that early stages of skin rejection were unambiguously identified. This procedure allows the earlier termination of the experiment and reduction of animal distress, and it can be re-evaluated anywhere and any time after completion. This study demonstrates the suitability of monitoring experimental skin allograft rejection by digital photography, entailing several refinements in animal experimentation, both for the researcher and for the animal.
