Attitudes toward Suicide: A Factor Analytic Approach.

Domino, George; And Others

Journal of Clinical Psychology, v38 n2 p257-62 Apr 1982

Presents a psychometric instrument, the Suicide Opinion Questionnaire (SOQ), which assesses community attitudes toward suicide. While further refinements of the SOQ are needed, results support its usefulness and also point out the complexities of attitudes toward suicide. Factors (N=15) accounted for 76.6% of the total variance. (Author/JAC)
