Lampert, Dominique I.; And Others
Suicide and Life-Threatening Behavior, v14 n4 p254-69 Win 1984
Examined relationship between occupational status and suicide in California males since 1925. Findings show an inverse relationship between occupational status and suicide for all age groups. Over time, male suicide rates have increased, particularly for employed males over 65, employed males aged 14 to 24, and males in low-status occupations. (Author/BL)
