The Changing Suicide Pattern in Canadian Adolescents and Youth, Compared to Their American Counterparts.
Leenaars, Antoon A.; Lester, David
Adolescence, v30 n119 p539-47 Fall 1995
Investigated rates of birth, divorce, marriage, and unemployment for subgroups in Canada and the United States and their effects on suicide rates. In Canada, domestic integration and the economy predicted youth suicide rates more accurately than they did adult rates. The United States had less variation in predictors for age groups. (RJM)
