Abstract
On the Word Preferences of Suicidal Versus Nonsuicidal College Students
Thurber S~~Torbet D P
A word format was used to investigate reactions to verbal stimuli of suicidal and nonsuicidal persons. Six words with either aggressive or submissive denotative meanings significantly differentiated the two groups. In addition, the word suicide was selected at a higher frequency level by suicidal individuals when compared to their nonsuicidal counterparts.
