Limbacher, Mary; Domino, George
Omega: Journal of Death and Dying, v16 n4 p325-34 1985-86
The Suicide Opinion Questionnaire was administered to undergraduate volunteers, and responses were analyzed comparing attempters, contemplators, and nonattempters. A factor analysis indicated seven significant factors accounting for 24.2 percent of the total variance. A discriminant function analysis yielded two functions that discriminated respondents on the basis of sex and prior suicide history. (Author/BL)
