Evans A L
A 36-item questionnaire covering knowledge & attitudes regarding suicide was given, in Ontario, to 111 police, 33 clergy, 29 counselors, & 36 members of the public. The pattern of results is presented in terms of the responses of each group to individual items on the questionnaire. The Canadian police compared favourably to the other groups, though there are identified areas where their education could be improved. (RM)
