Watt, Toni Terling; Sharp, Susan F.
Journal of Youth and Adolescence, v30 n3 p333-48 Jun 2001
Studied social strains contributing to suicidal behavior among adolescents by sex using the Add Health study of about 19,000 adolescents. Results support the presence of process differences and delineate the specific nature of these differences. Results also support models suggesting males are more status oriented and females are more relationally dependent. (SLD)
