TY - JOUR PY - 2002// TI - Suicide Amongst the Elderly in 'Catholic and Orthodox' and 'Non-Catholic-Orthodox' Countries: An Unexpected Finding JO - Archives of suicide research A1 - Pritchard, C. SP - 391 EP - 397 VL - 6 IS - 4 N2 - It was expected that elderly suicide compared to general suicide rates would be lower in Catholic and Orthodox countries than Non-Catholic-Orthodox states because of religious and extended family traditions. The reverse was the case. The reasons for this are unknown but there are important policy implications for the more traditional countries.
