Sociological Correlates of Alienation among Adolescent Suicide Attempts.

Wenz, Friedrich V.

Adolescence, v14 n53 p19-30 Spr 1979

Dean's alienation scale was employed with a sample of adolescent suicide attempters. Several variables were examined by multiple regression procedures and eight found to be statistically significant. The fact that adolescence, by itself, seems to be a good predictor of whether a person will attempt suicide is discussed (Author/SJL)
