Blaine G B~~Carmen L R
Case histories of 69 Harvard and Radcliffe students who attempted suicide were surveyed. Variables studied included the mode of suicide, precipitating factors, background factors which may have contributed, & results in terms of treatment & further education. Relevant factors seem to be concerned with loss, concern over academic work, parental level of education & source of family discipline.
