Lester, David
American Indian and Alaska Native Mental Health Research, v6 n3 p46-55 1995
Analysis of 1980 state-level data found that white suicide rates were associated with variables indicating social instability, while American Indian suicide rates were negatively related to wealth and urbanization. Both white and Indian homicide rates were related to social instability; Indian rates were also negatively related to unemployment. Includes data tables. (SV)
