Wannan, Gary; Fombonne, Eric
Journal of Adolescence, v21 n4 p371-81 Aug 1998
Factors associated with suicidal ideas, attempts, or threats were studied in adolescent psychiatric outpatients (N=5,426). Multivariate logistic regression analyses were performed by sex on data from 1968-1991. Substance abuse, depression, and disturbed relationships with adults were predictors for both sexes. In girls, antisocial behavior and depression had significant effects. (Author/EMK)
