An Analysis of the Suicide Rates of Birth Cohorts in Canada.
Lester, David
Suicide and Life-Threatening Behavior, v18 n4 p372-78 Win 1988
Study (Lester, 1984) found that, in United States, cohorts that had high suicide rates at one point in their life span had low suicide rates at other points and vice versa, suggesting that only a limited number of people in each cohort were suicide-prone. Replicated this result using Canadian data from 1921 to present. (Author)
