Gender Differences in Attributions about Suicide and Alcohol Use.
Lewis, Robin J.; And Others
Omega: Journal of Death and Dying, v28 n2 p139-49 1993-94
Examined attributions that college students (n=96) made about individual who committed suicide. Gender of victim and alcohol involvement were systematically varied. Women appeared to place more emphasis on contextual clues such as alcohol use and gender. Both women and men tended to associate alcohol use and suicide for male actors but not for female actors.
